San Diego Congressmen Honors You for COVID Resilience
***A message from Todd Roberts***
Team,
Congressmen Levin, Issa and Peters have dedicated, June 24, 2022, to honor and celebrate shipyard workers of San Diego for their resilience during the COVID pandemic. (See Proclamation below)
We are not only essential to the West Coast maritime industry, but to the success and readiness of the US Navy Pacific Fleet. By remaining open during the pandemic, we proved to our nation that we’re brave, dependable and reliable. I don’t need to tell you again how important and vital I think you all are, but it’s incredible having Congress recognize each and every one of you for carrying on in this pandemic.
Thank you all again for your determination and hard work during the world’s hardest time. MGBW is grateful to have you on our team.
Sincerely,
Todd Roberts, MGBW President
