President Donald Trump will sign an executive order in Wisconsin on Tuesday
directing federal agencies to implement the “Buy American, Hire American” rhetoric of his campaign. The executive order specifically targets the H-1B visa program, which allows 85,000 foreign workers into the United States each year to take specific high-skilled jobs with U.S. companies. The “Buy American” aspect of the order will focus primarily on “the twin pillars of maximizing ‘Made in America’ content and minimizing waivers and exceptions to ‘Buy American’ laws,” a senior administration official told reporters late Monday afternoon.
