Congress Currently Debating Whether to Reauthorize Export-Import Bank -- Failure to Act Could Cost U.S. Jobs and Reduce Exports

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) today pushed for passage of a bipartisan measure to renew the Export-Import Bank of the United States, which supports Pennsylvania companies and jobs by boosting exports.

The bank, which helps U.S. companies facilitate trade, will see its charter lapse unless Congress acts before it expires in May. Reauthorization is currently being debated in Congress. 

“The Export-Import Bank provides critical financing to help Pennsylvania businesses sell their products and provide good paying jobs,” said Senator Casey. “The bank has long received bipartisan support and it should be extended without delay. Playing politics with this effort could cost Pennsylvania jobs and hurt the economic recovery.”

Since 2007, the Export-Import Bank has lent over $1.7 billion to over 200 Pennsylvania companies, helping them create and retain jobs and compete in the global economy. This financing has supported over $3 billion in export sales for Pennsylvania businesses in the past five years. The bank is a self-sustaining, independent federal agency that operates at no cost to taxpayers.

Export-Import Bank financing is critical to help level the playing field for Pennsylvania exporters who compete against foreign companies who receive more export financing from their own governments.  

In 2011, the Export-Import Bank supported approximately 290,000 American jobs.

A list of Pennsylvania companies that have received financing from the Export-Import Bank since 2007 is below. Data is provided by the Export-Import Bank, which provides a breakdown of companies by Congressional District here.
