“As a proud and hard-working family company, we understand what goes into running a successful business,” said Griffith Electric president, Bill Goodwin, in a press release. “Powered by America is designed to support other U.S. companies and individuals, like us, that are proud of their country and want to see it prosper competitively once again. In so many ways, Powered by America has the opportunity to shape positive growth for our country,” said Goodwin. “We salute American manufacturers and encourage our country's loyalty to them.”
