The company will produce steel and titanium components for armored military vehicles supporting our men and women in uniform. As a veteran and senior member of the House Appropriations Committee, I will continue working to secure defense investments for the First District and create more good-paying jobs for the Eastern Shore.” Statement from George Tunis, Owner of Hardwire: “Congressman Harris, Worcester Co., and the City of Pocomoke have been longstanding partners of Hardwire. Together, we have now brought large-scale, state-of-the-art hot forming of advanced metals to the Eastern Shore.
