NDIA supports executive order reinvigorating America’s manufacturing base
ARLINGTON, VA – The White House announced this morning the pending release of an executive order strengthening provisions of the Buy America and Buy American statutes. The National Defense Industrial Association endorses the stated goals of supporting American manufacturing capabilities and technology, strengthening our national security and giving American companies and their workforces the tools needed to compete and win globally.
Establishing a senior leader in the Executive Office of the President, instituting cross-agency reviews and consideration of service industries in addition to manufacturing are good first steps.
NDIA looks forward to reading details of the executive order later today and to working with the administration on how these efforts can best bear fruit for the defense industrial base and, ultimately, for our warfighters.
