White House unveils ‘Made in America’ week

President Trump, whose company outsources the manufacturing of many of its products to overseas factories, is unveiling "Made in America" week at the White House to promote products made in the United States.

In keeping with the "America First" theme of Trump's inauguration, the administration will highlight U.S. manufacturing in the coming week, the latest of its theme weeks orchestrated by aides to bring discipline to the White House and focus Trump's schedule and message on a set of policies.

"This week the Trump administration will honor the amazing American workers and companies who have products that are made in America," Helen Ferre, the White House's director of media affairs, told reporters at a briefing here Sunday.

Asked at Sunday's briefing whether "Made in America" week would include a commitment from the Trump Organization or Ivanka Trump's company to make more of their products in the United States, Ferre told reporters, "We'll get back to you on that."

The White House hopes "Made in America" week can draw attention to actions the administration has taken that officials believe help U.S. manufacturing or promote the interests of U.S. workers, such as withdrawing the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, moving to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement or removing a series of environmental and other regulations.
