Why Join the Texas Association of Manufacturers?

Machine gears

Today more than ever, it is imperative to communicate the urgency of the plight of today’s manufacturer – and the resulting impact on jobs. The very economic pillars that have helped Texas weather the global economic storm – low taxes, a rational legal environment, and economic development incentives – are often under assault at the Texas Capitol and beyond.

TAM constantly reinforces to lawmakers, regulators and the press that manufacturers – and the 940,000 high quality jobs they provide – are not immune from collective consequences of legislative and regulatory actions.

We take seriously our commitment to our Members to see around corners, ferret out opportunity, and avoid unintended consequences that could threaten jobs and stifle economic growth. Member support helps TAM reinforce the need to protect the “strongest economy in the nation” and the economic engines that make it so.
