Washington, DC – Congressman Brett Guthrie (KY-02) was presented today, Tuesday, April 27, 2010, with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce “Spirit of the Enterprise” Award for his strong voting record on pro-business issues during the first session of the 111th Congress.

Eligibility for the award is based on how Members of Congress vote on key business issues, which the Chamber outlines in its annual publication How They Voted. These designated “key votes” are recorded floor votes on issues established as priorities on which the Chamber communicates its position prior to the vote.

“The Chamber applauds Representative Guthrie for supporting the private sector and job growth through these difficult times,” said Thomas J. Donohue, president and CEO of the U.S. Chamber. “He has demonstrated great courage and we commend him.”

As the world's largest business federation, the United States Chamber of Commerce represents more than three million businesses and organizations of every size, sector and region. For more information on the Chamber of Commerce or this award visit www.uschamber.com.
