Manufacturing

Summary

The bill would add a Chief Manufacturing Officer to the Department of Commerce to lead statewide manufacturing initiatives, set up a grant program to help small manufacturers adopt new technology and improve workforce training, and launch a promotional campaign. It would require state and local agencies to cooperate with the officer and mandate a biennial report on manufacturing progress. The measure failed, dying in a subcommittee.
