Virginia's Rep. Goode Honored for Supporting Manufacturing

Rep. Virgil Goode (R-Va.) was honored by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) for his support of American-based manufacturing during a ceremony at Cardinal Homes, a modular home manufacturer in Wylliesburg, Va.

Goode received the Award for Manufacturing Legislative Excellence in recognition of his supportive voting record on key legislation affecting manufacturing.

Goode's congressional district includes several counties in southwest Virginia and is home to at least nine modular home manufacturing facilities. Three NAHB Building Systems Councils (BSC) members — Cardinal Homes, Nationwide Custom Homes and Mod-U-Kraf Homes — have modular plants in Goode's district.

Bret Berneche, CEO of Cardinal Homes and former BSC chairman, presented Goode with the award.

Goode, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives since 1996, serves on the House Appropriations Committee and its agriculture and military construction subcommittees. He is also the vice chairman of the Veterans Administration/Housing and Urban Development Subcommittee.

Prior to being elected to Congress, Goode was a Virginia state senator from 1973 to 1996.
