Wright-Patt and other Federal Installations around the state bring over 100,000 jobs to the Dayton region and these jobs increased despite the pandemic,\u201d said Turner. \u201cI remain committed to keeping Ohio a leader in the defense and aerospace industry and welcoming new investments to the Dayton region,\u201d concluded Turner.\n\n\u201cWe know defense contracting obligations and military missions in the Dayton Region continue to grow, providing excellent career opportunities for our residents and acting as a catalyst for the creation of many successful local businesses. The impact makes up 17 percent of our economy, extending beyond defense contractors to businesses that support the installations, their employees, and their families,\u201d Hoagland said. \u201cThese installations deserve our attention and support, and we will continue to advocate for them and work to ensure their success.\u201d - Jeff Hoagland, Dayton Development Coalition President and CEO\n\n\u201cThose in Ohio\u2019s aerospace industry are constantly working on the future, and I am grateful for their unwavering commitment and passion,\u201d said Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. \u201cOhio led this nation into the \u201cAir Age\u201d of the early 20th century, and with a new generation of Ohioans, Ohio will lead this nation into the \u201cAerospace Age\u201d of the 21st century as well.\u201d -Gov. Mike DeWine\n\nBackground: In 2016, Congressman Turner and the Dayton Development Coalition created the Ohio Defense Forum in a cohesive effort to advance the defense industry in Ohio and provide a platform for defense leaders to discuss the state of defense in Ohio.
