The trip will tour many Saudi Arabian cities to learn more about gaining access to international markets for Hoosier manufactured and agricultural products.  Traveling to Saudi Arabia will help to answer the questions of unrest in the Middle-East and Northern Africa and how that impacts America and our economy.  Agriculture is always hit when the price of crude oil increases and this is already showing up in increased food costs.  Improving knowledge on fluctuations in the oil market and the affect on the value of the dollar which can cause issues with the debt ceiling and other budgetary concerns.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This trip will be informative especially in understanding the Saudi economy.&#8221; Stutzman said &#8220;With all of the unrest in the Middle-East and the rising cost of oil, now is the time to find out where we stand with the Saudis including on national security issues.  It is important to understand the trade between our countries and how that relates to Northeast Indiana, especially in relation to agricultural goods and equipment.  A stronger relationship between Saudi Arabia and Midwestern businesses can only help improve trade.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Congressman Stutzman represents the 3rd Congressional District of Indiana and serves on the House Committee on Agriculture, the House Committee on the Budget and the House Committee on Veterans&#8217; Affairs, Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity.  Indiana&#8217;s 3rd District contains all of DeKalb, Kosciusko, Lagrange, Noble, Steuben, and Whitley counties; as well as parts of Allen and Elkhart counties. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>News release from Congressman Stutzman: Stutzman Travels to Middle-East to Gather Facts on Economy Related Images:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3913],"tags":[6762,4168],"class_list":["post-18133","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3rd-congressional-district","tag-us-representative-marlin-stutzman","tag-washington-d-c"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
