AISI Offers Support For ‘Buy America’ Provisions President Biden signed an executive order (EO) January 25 designed to ensure that when the federal government spends taxpayer dollars they are spent on American-made goods with American-made components, closing loopholes that allow companies to offshore production and jobs while still qualifying for domestic preferences, according to the administration. In comments the day of the signing, Biden said that in 2018, the Defense Department alone spent $3 billion on foreign construction contracts,“leaving American steel and iron out in the cold.” Of the EO, he said, “Today we are getting to work to re- build the backbone of America: manufacturing, unions and the middle class. It is based on the simple premise that will reward work, not wealth, in this country.The key plank of ensuring the future will be Made-in-America.” The American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI),Washington, has voiced its support for the EO. The association’s President and CEO Kevin Dempsey said, “Strong domestic procurement preferences for federally funded infrastructure projects, known as Buy America, are essential to ensure that taxpayer dollars are used to procure American steel and other made-in-America products—and have helped create manufacturing jobs. We applaud Presi- dent Biden for affirming his commitment to ‘Build Back Better’ by enforcing and improving programs to ensure tax- payer dollars are used for products made in America—most significantly, the use of American steel.”
