Bishop, Jr. (GA-02) as co-chair of the bipartisan Congressional Automotive Performance and Motorsports Caucus. They will serve as the Republican and Democratic co-chairs of the caucus, respectively.\n\n\u201cCars and motorsports embody America\u2019s creative spirit, technological innovation, grit, and drive,\u201d said Congressman Bishop. \u201cI look forward to working with Congresswoman Harshbarger to support these engineering marvels which push the limits of competition, are iconic national treasures, and inspire new generations of collectors and enthusiasts.\u201d\n\n\u201cMotorsports and automotive performance are woven into the fabric of American culture and support an industry that drives innovation, fuels small businesses, and sustains more than a million jobs across the country,\u201d said Congresswoman Diana Harshbarger. \u201cFrom manufacturers and suppliers to racers, collectors, and enthusiasts, this industry represents the ingenuity and craftsmanship that make America exceptional. I\u2019m honored to serve as Co-Chair of the Congressional Automotive Performance and Motorsports Caucus alongside Congressman Bishop, and I look forward to working in a bipartisan way to support an industry that means so much to our economy and to communities like ours in East Tennessee.\n\nThe Automotive Performance and Motorsports Caucus was formed in 1996 to recognize the contributions the automotive performance and motorsports industry has made, and continues to make, to the U.S. economy. At the outset of the 119th Congress, Doug LaMalfa was the Republican co-chair of the caucus but sadly he passed away earlier this year.\n\nMany Middle and Southwest Georgia communities host regular meets and annual expos, including events like Albany\u2019s Southwest Georgia Car Show and the Moultrie Automotive Swap Meet which draws car enthusiasts and collectors from across the state.\n\nCurrent members of the bipartisan, bi-cameral caucus include:\n\nIn the U.S. House\n\nSanford D.
