Press Release
CONGRESSMAN Rahm EMANUEL VISITS STERN FACTORY
May 14, 2008
- Congressman Rahm Emanuel (5th District-IL), one of the highest-ranking
members in the House of Representatives, recently came to Stern Pinball.
Emanuel, who represents Chicago and its outlying areas, brought his family
to see how pinball machines are made.
Gary Stern and Ray Tanzer, Director of Mechanical Engineering, gave the
Emanuel family a tour of Stern's 40,000 sq. ft. factory. Along the way,
Ray showed the Emanuel children how various pinball playfield mechanisms
work by giving them a pinball to strike against bumpers and drop targets.
The children were ecstatic.
Gary Stern says, "We are honored to have Congressman Emanuel stop by and
visit our factory. We appreciate his interest in pinball and the success
of our business."
At the beginning of his second term, Emanuel received an assignment to
serve on the House Ways and Means Committee, which oversees taxes, trade,
Social Security, and Medicare issues. Additionally, Emanuel was appointed
by then House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to serve as Chairman of the
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. In January of 2007, the new
majority elected Emanuel to serve as Democratic Caucus Chair, the 4th
highest-ranking Member of the House Democratic Leadership.
