          ANALYSIS:  This resolution makes the following legislative  
          findings: 


          1)The first Friday in October is designated as National  
            Manufacturing Day and was created as an opportunity to  
            recognize and celebrate the contributions of manufacturing in  
            the United States.


          2)On October 7, 2016, many California manufacturers will open  
            their doors to the public to showcase their operations and  
            promote interest in the manufacturing sector as a quality

          3)California's manufacturing sector employs more than 1.3

            demands of a global economy.


          5)California's clean and energy efficient manufacturing industry  
            maintains and supports the long-term overall health of the  
            state's economy and stands ready to help increase  
            opportunities for high-wage employment that will expand access  
            to the middle class for all Californians.
