President Joe Biden signed on Jan. 25, 2021, executive order (EO) Ensuring the Future Is Made in All of America by All of America s Workers, that directs a process for updating domestic preferences. This EO builds upon a previous executive order signed by former President Donald Trump (EO number 13881) that was just instituted with final regulations earlier this month (as discussed in a previous blog post).
1 The executive action signals that the new administration is focused on domestic preferences in federal procurement.
Further, the order s waivers and review of domestic preference provisions concern a wide swath of domestic preference laws designated as Made in America Laws, which includes all statutes, regulations, rules and EOs relating to Buy America, Buy American or providing a preference for domestic goods, products or materials.
