ROCKFORD, IL – Congressman Eric Sorensen (IL-17) released the following statement ahead of President Joe Biden’s visit to Illinois.
“As I’m working across the aisle to make sure good-paying, union jobs come to my hometown of Rockford and stay here, I’m excited that the President, Governor, and UAW President are taking note and recognizing the workforce potential of our region,” said Sorensen. “I remember my mom taking me out of school to watch Air Force One land at the Greater Rockford Airport as a kid. Now, I’m thrilled to be standing alongside national leaders and sharing our priorities for Northern Illinois, like re-opening the Belvidere plant and ensuring workers are paid fair wages that can support a strong middle class.”
