The representative will provide NLBMDA members with an update on the committee’s work and share his perspectives on critical policy issues facing Congress and the nation.
Last November, Rep. Keller introduced legislation in the House to overturn the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate for private employers and has been leading efforts in Congress to push back against harmful labor policies that would worsen supply chain disruptions and workforce shortages.
Prior to joining Congress, Rep. Keller served five terms in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and had a 25-year career at Conestoga Wood Specialties where he rose to serve as Plant Operations Manager at the company’s Beavertown facility, managing over 230 employees and a $50 million-dollar annual budget.
While building his career at Conestoga, Rep. Keller started his own successful small business managing properties and serving as a general contractor.
