Lisle Corporation is a great Iowa company. For generations, here in Southern Iowa, Lisle Corporation has been a mainstay of the economy. The Lisle family has not only been an important part of the Clarinda community - they have also served their state. In fact, the President of the company - John Lisle - currently serves on the state Economic Development board.
Lisle Corporation started manufacturing ag products, and has grown through the years. Now they make products for the automotive and health care industries.

As the company has grown, so too has the demand for skilled, qualified workers. Utilizing state workforce training programs, they have partnered with Iowa Western Community College to ensure their workers have the skills they need.
I got to see some of these workers in action when I took a tour of their facility after my speech.
It is great when you can see for yourself the impact these programs are having on companies across the state, and that is why the Governor and I are going to work with the legislature to see these programs are funded.
The car is heading further west. After a little lunch, we will come to our stop in Shenandoah.
See you down the road,
Patty
