Oklahoma U.S. Sen. Markwayne Mullin got in his share of talking about energy and aviation during his recent break from work on Capitol Hill.
He paid visits to Oklahoma City, according to a newsletter update he made to constituents.
“The automotive industry is a centerpiece in the lives of millions of Americans. As a lifelong automotive enthusiast, I was thrilled to join the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) this week at DeatschWerks in Oklahoma City. We had the chance to discuss SEMA’s advocacy for small businesses in Oklahoma like DeatschWerks and their efforts to protect the automotive industry from government overreach. Thank you to David Deatsch , Founder of DeatschWerks, and Mike Deatsch, Vice President of DeatschWerks, for having me.
Thank you to the Moore Chamber of Commerce for a great morning and productive conversation. We discussed everything from workforce development and rare earth minerals mining to the relationship between China and our ally Taiwan. Thank you to Kim Brown , President and CEO of the Moore Chamber, Jim Jennings, Chairman of the Moore Chamber Board, and to all the members who came out on Tuesday morning and made it an awesome event. The Chamber’s advocacy on behalf of Moore and its businesses does not go unnoticed.
Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) is training the next generation of air traffic controllers, operating as the second largest single site employer in Oklahoma behind Tinker Air Force Base. Training 76,000 students annually, I had the distinct privilege of meeting with MMAC leadership and touring their training center. I look forward to seeing the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) footprint continue to grow in Oklahoma. Thank you to Michelle Coppedge , Kevin O’Connor, and Kim Sheppard for your time this week.”
God Bless!
