During the visit, Davidson and Chairman Jovanovic toured GE Aerospace\u2019s facility, met with company leaders, and discussed the role of export financing in supporting American manufacturing, aviation leadership, and jobs in Greater Cincinnati.\n\n\u201cGE Aerospace has helped make Southwest Ohio a center of American aviation and advanced manufacturing,\u201d said Davidson. \u201cI was glad to be joined by Chairman Jovanovic today to see that work firsthand and discuss how EXIM can support Ohio exporters and manufacturers. GE\u2019s work supports thousands of local jobs and strengthens America\u2019s ability to compete around the world. As Chairman of the subcommittee overseeing EXIM, I\u2019m focused on making sure American companies have the tools they need to take on subsidized foreign competitors and win.\u201d\n\n\u201cToday, Representative Davidson and I saw firsthand the power of American manufacturing at GE Aerospace in Ohio\u2019s 8th district. Industry leaders like GE Aerospace demonstrate the innovation, skill, and industrial strength that keep America\u2019s manufacturing sector strong and competitive,\u201d said Jovanovic. \u201cUnder President Trump\u2019s leadership, EXIM is going back to the basics: strengthening supply chain security, revitalizing American industry, and putting American workers first so they can compete and win around the globe.\u201d\n\nBackground:\n\nDavidson chairs the House Financial Services Subcommittee on National Security, Illicit Finance, and International Financial Institutions, which oversees EXIM. Earlier this year, the subcommittee held an oversight hearing with Chairman Jovanovic focused on strengthening the Bank\u2019s operations and ensuring American exporters can compete against foreign competitors backed by state subsidies.\n\nGE Aerospace has a long history in the region. Its Evendale facility opened in 1949 and became a major center for jet engine production, helping establish Greater Cincinnati as a hub for aviation manufacturing.\n\n###", 1, "2026-07-10T08:20:04Z", "2026-07-10T08:21:18Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://davidson.house.gov/2026/7/davidson-exim-bank-chairman-jovanovic-tour-ge-aerospace-in-evendale"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2753680348396301, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
