WASHINGTON (April 17, 2012)—The Alliance for American Manufacturing, a coalition of the United Steelworkers union and various U.S. manufacturing interests, has won the 2012 Campaign Excellence Award for “Public Affairs Campaign of the Year” from the American Association of Political Consultants.
AAM won the award for its 2011 series of reports and statements arguing for a renewed focus on manufacturing in the U.S., the organization said in a press release. “With national elections looming, this work found a receptive audience throughout Washington,” it said.
