Thursday July 20, 2017 the CEOs of Corning, Merck, and Pfizer pharmaceutical companies teamed up to bring back the pharmaceutical glass manufacturing to the United States through modernization and innovation. President Donald J. Trump, Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, and Assistant to the President for Intragovernmental and Technology Initiatives Reed Cordish welcomed them in the White House.
Together those companies will bring back significant United States manufacturing job, $4 billion investment and creating more than 4,000 new high-tech jobs for Americans in the coming years. Corning has developed the pharmaceutical glass packaging technology for storage and delivery of injectable drugs called “Valor Glass.” The initial investment by the three companies will cover the expansion of Corning facilities, as well as the building of a new high volume manufacturing plant in the Southeast to support the new, safer, and innovative manufacturing process of pharmaceutical glass.
98% of the $4 billion industry had previously been done overseas, making this an important stride in American employment and technology advancement.
The return of pharmaceutical glass manufacturing to the United States was made possible by collaboration between the three storied American companies and support from the Trump Administration.
"Every day, we are fighting to bring back our jobs, to restore our industry, and to put America first," said President Trump.
Food Stamp Use Falls to Lowest Level in Seven Years
Under Trump administration unemployment levels are in their lowest which causes the significant drop in food stamp participation. USDA statistics on Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participation showed that 42,609,852 people in the U.S. took part in the food stamp program in fiscal year (FY) 2017, the lowest level it has been since 2010 when 40,302,000 people enrolled in the program.
