WASHINGTON, Feb. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American Chemistry Council (ACC) announced today that it has launched advertisements complimenting Congressman Rodney Davis for his support of policies that will grow the economy and create jobs in Illinois.

"Because ACC represents one of the nation's largest manufacturing sectors, we want to acknowledge Congressman Davis' support of policies that encourage domestic energy production and grow small businesses – policies that will foster innovation, stimulate our economy and put people in Illinois' thirteenth district and across the country in good-paying jobs," explained Cal Dooley, President and CEO of ACC.

Dooley added, "In a time when much of the political discourse in America is negative, it's important to highlight the positive work Congressman Davis is doing to promote the two most important issues facing our country – economic growth and job creation."

The advertisements will run for ten days in several media markets throughout the thirteenth district of Illinois, including Champaign and Springfield, and will appear as online video ads as well. They encourage constituents to contact the Congressman's office to tell him to keep up the good work.
