Industry leaders, legislators discuss manufacturing issues

CRANBERRY TWP — Local business leaders discussed pressing issues revolving mainly around employment and inflation with elected representatives Thursday morning.

At a roundtable hosted by the Manufacturer & Business Association, five state representatives heard of the ongoing difficulties in the industry and talked about whether those issues could be addressed by state government.

“I may only represent a portion of Butler County, but there’s a lot of growth in this county, as you can see driving down here from various parts of the state, from wherever you came from,” said state Rep. Marci Mustello, R-11th, in introductory comments. “This is really a hub of growth down here, and we have to think regionally.”

Mustello was joined by another elected official from Butler County, state Rep. Abby Major, R-60th, as well as Reps. Carrie Lewis DelRosso, R-33rd, Parke Wentling, R-17th, and Donna Oberlander, R-63rd. Oberlander serves as the state House majority whip, and all five are members of the House Manufacturing Caucus.
