    Proclamation 10093 of October 3, 2020
    Made in America Day and Made in America Week, 2020
    By the President of the United States of America
    A Proclamation
    The ``Made in America''; stamp stands for excellence in craftsmanship.
    It is a testament to the expertise of our millions of inventors,
    craftsmen, tradesmen, and laborers who make up the most skilled,
    innovative, and dedicated workforce in the world. On Made in America
    Day, and throughout Made in America Week, we commend these hardworking
    men and women and recommit ourselves to strengthening American
    manufacturing as we rebuild the greatest economy in our Nation's history
    for a second time.
    For too long, politicians failed to recognize the critical importance of
    using American labor to make American goods, so that the profits and
    jobs stay here at home. They enabled American companies to ship their
    jobs overseas and sat by while foreign companies ripped off our
    products. They fostered in our country a dangerous reliance on foreign
    countries while neglecting American workers and American families. These
    days are over. Under my Administration, these forgotten men and women
    are forgotten no longer. I pledged to always put American workers first,
    and as President, I have delivered on that promise, vigorously
    implementing trade and manufacturing policies that encourage

    [[Page 5367]]

    the building, creating, and growing of more products right here at home.
    As a result, we are creating jobs, improving lives, and strengthening
    our families, our neighbors, and our Nation.
    This year, the coronavirus pandemic has exposed the profound failures of
    past trade and manufacturing policies. It has never been clearer that
    foreign dependence is not only the antithesis of the American spirit,
    but it also endangers our national security in times of crisis. To
    ensure domestic resilience moving forward, my Administration has
    renegotiated international trade agreements and enacted manufacturing
    policies that encourage buying American and hiring American like never
    before. Earlier this year, the landmark United States-Mexico-Canada
    Agreement took effect--reopening factories, bringing home hundreds of
    thousands of jobs, and reasserting America's manufacturing might. I have
    also signed Executive Orders that strengthen production standards under
    the Buy American Act and ensure the Federal Government maximizes its use
    of American-made products.
    As our Nation continues to reopen our economy, I call on businesses to
    sign our Pledge to America's Workers. The programs involved will be
    essential to getting Americans back to work by educating, training, and
    reskilling workers of all ages. More businesses taking the Pledge will
    further our economic comeback and ensure we regain the strides we had
    made under my Administration.
    ``Made in America''; is not a slogan. It is a solemn pledge. It is the
    foundation of our renewed success. On every front, my Administration
    will continue to fight for American workers, American jobs, and American
    businesses to ensure prosperity today and for America's future
    generations.
    NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of
    America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and
    the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim October 5, 2020, as
    Made in America Day and this week, October 4 through October 10, 2020,
    as Made in America Week. I call upon all Americans to pay special
    tribute to builders, ranchers, crafters, entrepreneurs, and all those
    who work with their hands every day to make America great.
    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this third day of
    October, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty, and of the
    Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
    fifth.
    DONALD J. TRUMP
