The U.S. Chamber of Commerce honored Congressman Josh Gottheimer with its annual Spirit of Enterprise Award, given in recognition of his support for pro-growth policies in the first session of the 115th Congress. Gottheimer was joined by Fifth District business leaders and leaders of the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce, the Paramus Chamber of Commerce, the Maywood Chamber of Commerce, and the Wyckoff Chamber of Commerce.
Gottheimer is one of only 13 Democrats in the House of Representatives to receive the Chamber’s award. Gottheimer with both sides of the aisle to advance pro-growth policies as Co-Chair of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus, made up of 24 Democrats and 24 Republicans working to get to “yes” on issues that affect all Americans. Gottheimer is consistently ranked as one of the most bipartisan members of Congress, as recently announced by the Lugar Center and Quorum.
"I'm proud of my work to lower taxes, cut red tape, support our workers, invest in our crumbling infrastructure, and fight for a better return on the tax dollars we already send to Washington. It’s an honor to receive the Spirit of Enterprise Award from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which, for more than a hundred years, has been a voice for economic growth and a champion for opportunity and prosperity for Americans and businesses of all sizes," said Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5). "While I work hard to advocate for pro-growth, pro-jobs policies, I want to recognize and thank the real job creators: North Jersey businesses that choose to invest in our state and our workers.
