Sources of Items Made In the U.S.A. (or with Non-Sweatshop Labor)
Due to the fact that I simply have too much on my hands for this project,
I am no longer updating this page as of Monday, March 12, 2012.
If you run a company that makes or distributes USA-Made items,
please contact MadeInUSAForever.com
I am listing the URLs for each of the companies for you to print out,
or perhaps start another list of your own.
I'm sorry to do this, but I just don't have any more time to keep this page updated.
But permit me to thank everyone who has provided me with information
and good wishes. Without your help, this page would never have existed.
If anyone feels moved to start their own website of such manufacturers and dealers, send me an e-mail and I'll add a link on this page.
Thanks to everyone who helped me through the years, and please remember to keep it MADE IN THE USA!
Videotaped from a broadcast on KRGV-TV Channel 5 (Weslaco, Texas) Oct. 10, 1998.
This list can be routed through: the following URLs:
Heartfelt salutes to George Salzmann, Christopher Lee, Nicole Drake,
Gerry Murphy, Todd Hecker, Brian Zachary Beatty, and Lynnette Payne
for their suggestions, Mr. Edward Staniszewski of Lifewear for his HTML help,
Ms. Ellie Knapp for her support, the many people who strive to buy American-Made
and told me of these companies, and to the many manufacturers and retailers
in the USA who have informed me of their websites! I thank you one and all!
And if you're going to wear American Flag lapel pins,
wear ones made in the USA!
You can buy them from American Made Clothing - Union House Apparel: http://www.unionlabel.com/us-flag-lapel-pin.html
and By American Company: http://www.byamericanco.com
Thanks, Amy & Stephen!
