RECOGNIZING PATRIOT INDUSTRIES
(Mr. McGUIRE asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. McGUIRE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Patriot
Industries of Louisa County, Virginia, for being named the Small
Business Administration's Virginia Manufacturer of the Year.
Founded in 2010 by Tom and Sarah Click in a modest 1,000-square-foot
facility, Patriot Industries has grown into a leading manufacturer of
electrical infrastructure products, operating three U.S.-based
facilities and employing nearly 100 Americans.
Their conduit, fittings, and other critical components help support
construction, energy systems, and infrastructure projects across the
country.
Through continuous investment in manufacturing, innovation, and
workforce development, Patriot has strengthened domestic supply chains
while creating jobs in Virginia.
I congratulate Tom, Sarah, and the entire Patriot team on this well-
deserved recognition and thank them for representing the very best of
American manufacturing.
