Cates trying to keep DHL in Wilmington
Press release from the office of state Sen. Gary Cates, R-Butler County:
COLUMBUS—State Senator Gary Cates (R-Butler County) will attend a joint hearing of the Senate Finance and Financial Institutions Committee and the House State Government and Elections Committee next week to discuss the potential impact of DHL’s plan to transfer its operations from Wilmington to Louisville, Kentucky. Sen. Cates, a member of the Senate Finance Committee, and other legislators on the panel will have the opportunity to hear from state and local officials, as well as affected workers.
The meeting will take place on Tuesday, August 19, 2008 at 1:00 p.m. at Building 2 of the ABX Airpark Facility, 145 Hunter Drive, Wilmington, Ohio 45177.
“DHL’s plan to move from Wilmington to Kentucky would not only be a tremendous blow to Clinton County but workers and local communities throughout southwest Ohio,” said Cates. “I look forward to talking with area residents and listening to their concerns, and I hope to work with my colleagues in the General Assembly, as well as other state and local officials, to do all we can to keep DHL in the region.”
