Davidson, EXIM Bank Chairman Jovanovic Tour GE Aerospace in Evendale

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EVENDALE. - Today, July 8, 2026, U.S. Representative Warren Davidson (OH-08) joined Export-Import Bank of the United States President and Chairman John Jovanovic for a visit to GE Aerospace's Evendale facility. The visit was part of a larger EXIM initiative to bring the bank's leadership directly to American manufacturers to hear how it can better support U.S. companies competing in global markets. During the visit, Davidson and Chairman Jovanovic toured GE Aerospace's facility, met with company leaders, and discussed the role of export financing in supporting American manufacturing, aviation leadership, and jobs in Greater Cincinnati. "GE Aerospace has helped make Southwest Ohio a center of American aviation and advanced manufacturing," said Davidson. "I was glad to be joined by Chairman Jovanovic today to see that work firsthand and discuss how EXIM can support Ohio exporters and manufacturers. GE's work supports thousands of local jobs and strengthens America's ability to compete around the world. As Chairman of the subcommittee overseeing EXIM, I'm focused on making sure American companies have the tools they need to take on subsidized foreign competitors and win." "Today, Representative Davidson and I saw firsthand the power of American manufacturing at GE Aerospace in Ohio's 8th district. Industry leaders like GE Aerospace demonstrate the innovation, skill, and industrial strength that keep America's manufacturing sector strong and competitive," said Jovanovic. "Under President Trump's leadership, EXIM is going back to the basics: strengthening supply chain security, revitalizing American industry, and putting American workers first so they can compete and win around the globe." Background: Davidson chairs the House Financial Services Subcommittee on National Security, Illicit Finance, and International Financial Institutions, which oversees EXIM. Earlier this year, the subcommittee held an oversight hearing with Chairman Jovanovic focused on strengthening the Bank's operations and ensuring American exporters can compete against foreign competitors backed by state subsidies. GE Aerospace has a long history in the region. Its Evendale facility opened in 1949 and became a major center for jet engine production, helping establish Greater Cincinnati as a hub for aviation manufacturing. ###
