Wire and Wire Products Caucus
A bipartisan coalition of Members of Congress interested in and concerned with the health of our nation’s wire and wire products manufacturers and consumers. Through informational roundtable discussions, public briefings, and Member-to-Member communications, the Wire and Wire Products Caucus works to help educate the Congress, Executive Branch, and the broader policy community on the importance and contributions of domestic wire and wire products manufacturing to our nation’s economy, infrastructure, and national security.
The Wire and Wire Products Caucus was established in 2011 in the 113th Congress by Representatives Sam Graves (R-6-MO) and Jim Cooper (D-5-TN), who retired in 2023.
