U.S. Senators Tammy Baldwin and Rick Scott Lead Colleagues in Bipartisan Resolution Calling on Americans to Buy Products Made in the U.S.
Senators Tammy Baldwin and Rick Scott also recently introduced the bipartisan Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) Online Act to ensure that all goods sold online list their country of origin to allow American consumers to make informed decisions, and help promote goods that are made in America.
“I strongly believe that when we’re using U.S. taxpayer dollars, we should be supporting American workers and American-made products,” said Senator Baldwin. “As our nation addresses supply chain shortages and works to keep our economy moving forward during this pandemic, we must boost our Made in America economy by prioritizing American manufacturers, workers and products over foreign workers and foreign-made goods.”
“The Coalition for a Prosperous America supports Buy American and is pleased to see the Senate introduce a resolution calling on Americans to buy products Made in the USA. This is a good first step and I look forward to the Senate working on bipartisan legislation to codify these sentiments. Buy American is critical to rebuilding the economy,” said Dan DiMicco, Board Chairman of the Coalition for a Prosperous America.
“Times are tough right now for many Americans. Tens of millions are out of work and countless businesses have closed for good. But buying American-made products is one way all of us can help get things back on track. When you buy something that is Made in America, you support good-paying jobs, local businesses, and frankly, some amazing products. The government also has a role to play by applying Buy America to things like infrastructure spending, which ensures taxpayer dollars are reinvested into our communities instead of being sent overseas,” said Scott N. Paul, President, Alliance for American Manufacturing.
