Mrvan Statement on the Start of the 119th Congress

Washington, DC – Today, Congressman Frank J. Mrvan released the following statement on the start of the 119th Congress.

“As we start the 119th Congress, I remain focused on the actions I can control to address the pressing issues facing Northwest Indiana communities.  The oath of office is a sacred trust with the constituents of Indiana’s First Congressional District and I commit to faithfully performing my responsibilities to uphold the United States Constitution.  I look forward to continuing to collaborate in a bipartisan fashion with all federal and regional stakeholders, including state and local officials, to generate more work and wealth for the Northwest Indiana economy.  My priorities will remain to defend and support the domestic steel industry, incentivize and bring back federal investments in our manufacturing industry and critical infrastructure, and enhance and preserve our incredible shoreline and environmental wonders.  I will also continue to be a vocal advocate for vulnerable populations, public safety and law enforcement personnel, and the rights of our invaluable members of organized labor.”
