Alabama U.S. Senator Katie Britt was awarded the “2025 U.S. Metalcasting Industry Congressional Champion” award from the American Foundry Society (AFS). This award recognizes a member of Congress who has demonstrated support for the metalcasting industry on national issues.
McWane joined other members of AFS to present the award at the AFS Government Affairs Fly-In in Washington D.C. The award highlighted her commitment to pro-growth policies and economic opportunity for metalcasters.
“It’s an honor to receive the 2025 U.S. Metalcasting Industry Congressional Champion award from the American Foundry Society,” said Senator Britt. “I’m proud to be a strong partner in advancing the metalcasting industry, which is central to growing our economy, modern infrastructure, and national defense. This recognition is especially meaningful to me because it reflects the vital role that Alabama plays in fueling our nation’s manufacturing capabilities. I’ll continue to fight for policies that empower hardworking Americans, strengthen our communities, and power a powerful new era of Made in America excellence.”
