On Sunday, President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to push federal agencies to “buy American.”
As his tariffs continue to come under fire from judges debating their legality, Trump is claiming that there is no excuse to not buy American-made products. He also touted his administration’s work in “strengthening MADE IN AMERICA Laws, ENDING Waiver Loopholes, and STOPPING the Federal Government from buying Foreign Products.”
Look:
ALL FEDERAL AGENCIES MUST BUY AMERICAN — NO EXCUSES! For decades, Washington politicians sent your Taxpayer Dollars overseas, and let Foreign Countries rip us off while our Workers, Factories, and Supply Chains were left behind. That betrayal is OVER.

“ALL FEDERAL AGENCIES MUST BUY AMERICAN — NO EXCUSES! For decades, Washington politicians sent your Taxpayer Dollars overseas, and let Foreign Countries rip us off while our Workers, Factories, and Supply Chains were left behind. That betrayal is OVER. My Administration is strengthening MADE IN AMERICA Laws, ENDING Waiver Loopholes, and STOPPING the Federal Government from buying Foreign Products when Great American Products are available — And to the D.C. Bureaucrats: NO MORE handing out Waivers like candy!” Trump wrote. “No more rubber-stamping exceptions for Foreign Products while American Workers get shafted. We are putting American Workers, American Factories, and American Supply Chains FIRST — Bigger, better, and stronger than ever before! I already signed EO 14392 to crack down on fake ‘MADE IN AMERICA’ claims, and we are enforcing it HARD. No more games. No more fake labels. No more ripping off the American Taxpayer. AMERICA FIRST means BUY AMERICAN!”
Under the Buy American Act of 1933, federal agencies are already largely required to purchase American-made products for public use, but there are some loopholes such as lack of product availability, unreasonable cost and whether domestic investment would be counter to public interest.
X users reacted to his demand:
AMERICA FIRST!
SECURITY FIRST!
QUALITY FIRST!
MADE IN AMERICA!
ALL REAL AMERICANS SHOULD STAND WITH PRODUCT OF USA!
