Washington~ The Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) is pleased to announce that Representative Dan Lipinski (D-IL-03) and Representative Mo Brooks (R-AL-05) will each receive a 2018 American Trade Hero Award.
“We are honored to present Representatives Dan Lipinski and Mo Brooks with our 2018 American Trade Hero Award,” said Michael Stumo, CEO of CPA. “Their unwavering commitment to supporting America’s producers is truly commendable. CPA is hopeful that other members of Congress will follow their leadership on these crucial issues.”
Representative Dan Lipinski has a strong voting record with CPA. He has opposed measures like Trade Promotion Authority and repeal of country of origin labeling, and he has voted against trade agreements with South Korea, Panama, Columbia, and Peru.
