WASHINGTON, Nov. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American Chemistry Council (ACC) announced that it has launched advertisements commending Congressman Bill Shuster for his support of policies that will grow the economy and create jobs in the Keystone State.

"As representatives of one of America's largest manufacturing industries, ACC and its members want to acknowledge Congressman Shuster's leadership on issues that encourage strong domestic energy policy, support small businesses and keep taxes low—policies that will foster innovation, stimulate our economy and put people in the state and across the country in good-paying jobs," explained Cal Dooley, President and CEO of ACC.

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

The advertisements will run in several media markets throughout the ninth district of Pennsylvania for three weeks 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.
