The Essential Minerals Association (EMA) today released the following statement regarding former President Trump’s Vice President choice, Republican Senator J.D. Vance of Ohio:
“The Essential Minerals Association congratulates Senator J.D. Vance on being named as former President Trump’s Vice-Presidential candidate. EMA staff had an opportunity to meet with his senior leadership team in his Senate office to educate them about the important role the minerals industry plays in the U.S. and Ohio economies. Our member companies have numerous mineral operations in the state, and members Omya and Rotex have headquarters in Ohio as well.
“As we transition to a greener economy, Ohio also has become a chief manufacturer of the batteries we are increasingly reliant upon.
“With this past weekend’s tragedy in mind, we hope the remainder of the Republican convention, the upcoming Democratic convention, and the run-up to November’s election are peaceful. Violence has no place in politics, and our nation’s election process can and should remain civil.”
The Essential Minerals Association (EMA) is the representative voice for companies that extract and process a vital and beneficial group of raw materials and minerals, which are the essential ingredients for many of the products used in everyday life. EMA ensures that the voices of its member companies and the socio-economic benefits they provide – from mining to end-use products – are heard by government leaders as well as the general public.
