We were so pleased to have Senator Judy Ward from PA's 30th District visit us on October 7, 2022.

Senator Ward stated that "I was very impressed by what I learned on a recent tour at EMS (Electric Motor & Supply) in Altoona. Patrick Illig, owner, explained the unique service their company provides. EMS is depended on by many companies, even outside of the United States, when operating equipment needs complex repairs for production. The employees at EMS are highly skilled in their trade and have an immense responsibility to provide a top-notch service."
