Washington, D.C. - Congressman Dave Loebsack today welcomed leaders from the Quad Cities to Washington for their annual trip. They discussed economic development issues including the implementation of the Regional Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Hub; transportation issues such as the I-74 Bridge and other infrastructure projects; as well as the importance of the Rock Island Arsenal. Each year, Loebsack meets with community leaders and local Chambers of Commerce groups from around the state to discuss issues important to their region.

"I am glad leaders from the Quad Cities could come and discuss important projects aimed at moving the region forward," said Loebsack. "Meeting with the local leaders in Washington gives me a very important opportunity to continue the conversation we have when I am in the district. I look forward to working alongside them and being a strong voice for the regions priorities."
