With the growing global demand for chemicals to make the everyday products – from cell phones to solar panels and more – American families and businesses rely on, policymakers must adopt smart, pro-growth policies that support American chemistry and manufacturing. The U.S. must learn from past regulatory mistakes and look to Europe’s policy choices as a cautionary tale. In an op-ed for The Washington Times, ACC President & CEO Chris Jahn explains why the White House and policymakers should prioritize on producing more chemistry in America – not less. #ChemistryCreates https://ow.ly/4jUi50Tx37M
