The mission of the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) is to be the voice for all manufacturing in the United States. The NAM is the largest manufacturing association in the United States, representing small and large manufacturers in every sector and in all 50 states. Manufacturing employs more than 12.8 million men and women, contributes $2.38 trillion to the U.S. economy annually, has the largest economic multiplier of any major sector and accounts for 64 percent of all private-sector research and development in the nation.
We inform legislators, the Administration, the media, policy influencers and the public about manufacturing’s vital leadership in innovation, job opportunity, technological progress and economic security. We are a respected and focused partner in achieving an economic environment that encourages the expansion of manufacturing in the United States and strengthens our global leadership.
Follow us for regular updates about manufacturing industry news, blog posts on breaking news, upcoming NAM events, and more. At every turn, we are working on behalf of manufacturers in America to advance policies that help manufacturers do what they do best: create economic strength and jobs.
