The SECURE Data Act is the right approach to enacting a long-overdue federal data privacy law. By creating a unified, national standard, Congress can finally give Americans power over their data and businesses a stable and predictable regulatory environment.

.@AshliWatts emphasizes the importance of making sure that regulations—including data privacy laws—are workable so that small and medium sized operators can navigate their responsibilities. That’s why @shopfloorNAM supports the SECURE Data Act.

Ever wonder why prescription drugs cost so much at the pharmacy counter, even with health insurance? 🛑💸 On this clip of @MakingMedPod, @CCrainNAM from @ShopFloorNAM joins host @johnbstanford to pull back the curtain on PBMs, the hidden prescription drug middlemen who actually profit when list prices stay high.

Most people assume prescription drugs are the absolute biggest driver of skyrocketing healthcare costs. But what if they're only 9% of the total? 🤯 On the latest episode of @MakingMedPod, host @johnbstanford sits down with @CCrainNAM from @ShopFloorNAM to look at the real data behind the healthcare system and bust the biggest myth in medicine.

The SECURE Data Act allows manufacturers to innovate responsibly while protecting consumers’ data. It’s time to end the ambiguity and state patchwork of laws and embrace a uniform national standard that keeps America competitive and Americans in control of their data.

.@RepGusBilirakis is right: Americans need a comprehensive, federal privacy law—and businesses need to be able to navigate those protections without a confusing patchwork of state laws. Manufacturers support the SECURE Data Act because it properly balances these concerns so that Americans can protect their data and businesses can confidently grow and innovate.

Great to join @johnbstanford on the @MakingMedPod to talk about how to drive American innovation and make healthcare more affordable for manufacturers and their workers.  📻Tune in to hear how PBM reform, 340B transparency, and continued regulatory certainty from the FDA will keep the workforce at full strength while lowering the cost of healthcare. youtube.com/watch?v=iigOzZP7…

Manufacturers have urged the administration to phase out the SEC's costly and unworkable conflict minerals mandate. @ShopfloorNAM thanks @FinancialCmte Chairman @RepFrenchHill and @RepHuizenga for their work to reduce disclosure burdens for publicly traded manufacturers. financialservices.house.gov/…

In particular, as @ShopFloorNAM said in our letter to @SECGov earlier this year, reforming the non-accelerated filer definition to protect more small, mid-size, and newly public companies will encourage capital formation and drive manufacturing growth, investment, and job creation.

Manufacturers support responsible and commonsense modernizations to the Clean Air Act as part of comprehensive permitting reform efforts in Congress. In a recent report released by @ShopFloorNAM in partnership with @JoinFAI, nearly 73% of manufacturers must obtain Clean Air Act permits to proceed with planned projects. Overall, the U.S. manufacturing sector has incurred an average annual permitting burden of at least $7.9 billion. If we want to grow America’s economy, we need to fix this broken system, which involves modernizing the Clean Air Act. @HouseCommerce republicans-energycommerce.h…

Manufacturers have long called for Congress to counter the threat that proxy firms’ outsized influence poses to everyday Americans’ retirement savings. @ShopFloorNAM thanks @RepBryanSteil for introducing the Protecting Americans’ Retirement Savings from Politics Act to rein in the proxy advisor duopoly. @FinancialCmte
🚨It’s time to rein in the proxy advisor duopoly🚨 The Protecting Americans’ Retirement Savings from Politics Act will end the politicization of your retirement, ensure transparency, and restore accountability.

This Tax Day, manufacturers now have a permanent, pro-growth tax code that allows our industry to compete and win. Thanks to President Trump, leaders in his Cabinet and in Congress, the 2017 provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act were not just made permanent—they were made even stronger, which saved 6 million jobs. The tax and investment incentives in H.R. 1 amount to the most significant economic transformation in the history of our industry, serving as rocket fuel for manufacturers. #ManufacturingWins nam.org/on-tax-day-the-recei…

On @MorningsMaria, @GOPMajorityWhip highlights how the Working Families Tax Cuts provides a permanent, pro-growth tax code that is supporting manufacturers like Ultra Machining Company as they invest in the future. #ManufacturingWins @MariaBartiromo
