In the article “American’ Dilemma: Move Work to U.S. or Lose Business,” published in the Globe and Mail, Canada’s national newspaper, Dickinson Wright Attorney Dan Ujczo discusses the new “Buy American, Hire American” initiative.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order recently that directs government agencies to look for ways to boost the purchase of American products in federal contracts.
