and Liberty for all…

This Sunday, our nation will celebrate Independence Day, commemorating the Continental Congress’ adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.
Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration preamble reads: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Remember, as you gather, family, friends and neighbors, that the tools to rebuild, the weapons with which to win the battles ahead, lie firmly within the grasp of even the least of us: BUY AMERICAN, and buy locally-owned.
It is the position of An American Footprint that every purchase should be Made in the USA origin, but if there is no alternative, please buy from an American-owned company and sold by an American-locally-owned retailer. It really matters…

Happy Independence Day, America!

Fabric made in the USA?

Looks like one of our List members, Country Cottons, is faced with discontinuing their products due to the inavailability of the fabric made in this country with which to create their towels and dishcloths.
A quote from their website:
“Attention! Attention! Attention!
Due to the non-availability of cloth being made in the USA we are temporarily shutting down our Web Site.
We have a few colors of Dishcloths and Kitchen Towels available. To place your order please call 704-888-4216. If you get our voice mail, leave a message and I will call you back to get your order. Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your interest in our wonderful products. ”
Can you help?
