The Congressional Research Service has repeatedly reported to the Committee that mining jobs are the top paying, non-supervisory positions in the country. Aren't these the sort of jobs that we want Americans to have? Yet more domestic mining isn't just about the jobs in the mines. There are thousands of geologists, biologists, and environmental engineers. It is about the tens of thousands of jobs in the industries that support our miners from the Caterpillar factories in Illinois to Red Wing Boots in Minnesota, from St. Pierre Chains in Worcester, Massachusetts to Airflow Catalyst Systems in Rochester, New York.
