WASHINGTON – The United States Chamber of Commerce today presented Congressman Thaddeus McCotter (MI-11) with its prestigious “Spirit of Enterprise” award for his support of pro-growth legislation during the second session of the 109th Congress.
The Chamber presents the award annually and eligibility is based on how members of Congress vote on key businesses issues, which the Chamber outlines in its annual publication, “How They Voted.”
“While the political climate in Washington continues to change, it remains necessary for the business community to have leaders like Thaddeus McCotter in Congress who are committed to economic expansion and job growth,” said Tom Donohue, Chamber president and CEO. “This award recognizes those lawmakers who have demonstrated leadership on important business issues such as trade, pension reform, and energy resource development.”
Congressman McCotter is the Chairman of the House Republican Policy Committee and is a member of the House Budget and Foreign Affairs committees.
