National Forest Products Week

Statement

Maine's Second District Congressman, Bruce Poliquin, released the following statement in celebration of National Forest Products week:

"Today, I join my fellow Mainers in celebrating National Forest Products week.

"As a third generation Mainer, I understand the rich history and tradition our forest products industry has in Maine.

"From making tongue depressors and popsicle sticks in Guilford to pulp and paper manufacturing all across our Great State, I'm proud to honor and recognize our hard-working men and women who help make our terrific Made-In-Maine forest products.

"In Congress, I will continue to support bills that will help our forest products industry grow and create more jobs while responsibly preserving Maine's pristine environment."
