The president of the National Association of Manufacturers made a few stops in Iowa last week as part of his nationwide tour. Jay Timmons says the purpose of the tour is to spread the word about the industry.
One thing Timmons says he tells young people is the pay scale in manufacturing.
The “State of Manufacturing Tour” made stops at Sukup Manufacturing in Sheffield, Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids, SwineTech in Cedar Rapids, and The Kirkwood Regional Center at the University of Iowa in Coralville.
