(WASHINGTON, DC) - In recognition of his strong support of business and economic development in his district, the United States Chamber of Commerce awarded Rep. Collin Peterson (D-MN) with its 2004 “Spirit of Enterprise” award.

“It’s an honor to be recognized by an organization representing so many business people in my district,” Peterson said. “Our communities are stronger because of the work and dedication of the local chambers and their membership.”
