US mandates federal agencies to prioritize American-made products and tighten 'Buy American' enforcement.

President Donald Trump ordered all federal agencies to prioritize purchasing American-made products, eliminating waiver loopholes that allow buying foreign goods. This move aims to strengthen U.S. manufacturing, protect American workers, and ensure taxpayer dollars support domestic supply chains. An executive order signed in March targets fraudulent "Made in America" claims, directing the Federal Trade Commission and other agencies to enforce stricter labeling standards and verify compliance. The administration plans to refer violations to the Department of Justice, signaling a tougher stance on foreign product procurement in federal contracts.
