Washington, D.C. - Congressman Dave Loebsack today welcomed leaders from the Quad Cities Chamber to Washington for their annual trip to discuss economic development, transportation issues such as the I-74 Bridge, infrastructure, as well as the importance of the Rock Island Arsenal and the possible effects of sequestration. Each year, Loebsack meets with community leaders and local Chambers of Commerce groups from around the state to discuss issues important to their region.
"Meeting the members of the Quad Cities Chamber in Washington gives me a very important opportunity to continue to the conversation we have when I am in the district," said Loebsack. "There are many important issues that have a direct impact on the Quad Cities region being discussed in Washington. I am glad the Chamber could come and discuss these topics. I look forward to working alongside them to move the region forward and be a strong voice for their priorities."
