BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

A PROCLAMATION

For two and a half centuries, America’s proud legacy has been shaped by visionaries and builders who have chased excellence and reached for the impossible.  During Made in America Week, we celebrate the mighty engine of American manufacturing, driven by the businesses and workers who power our economy, and recommit to building a future where our greatest works are yet to come.

American craftsmanship has long been woven into the fabric of our national identity.  From the factory floors and steel mills to the family-owned shops that line our Main Streets, the ingenuity of our manufacturers and the labor of our workers have built the greatest industrial engine the world has ever known, making the United States the most productive and prosperous Nation in human history.  We are a people who never stop building, forever summoned by destiny to reach even greater heights.

Yet our hard-earned greatness has come under siege.  Decades of disastrous trade policies surrendered our industrial strength to foreign nations in the name of producing cheaper goods — undercutting our workers, hollowing out our manufacturing base, and weakening our national security. For too long, Washington bureaucrats have sold out American workers in exchange for cheap foreign labor, trading away the livelihoods of the very people who made ourcountry great.  To proudly emblazon those beautiful words “Made in America” once again, we must restore America’s capacity to manufacture here at home.  Thanks to my Administration’s landmark trade deals, we are ushering in the greatest reshoring wave in our history as companies finally return home, investing trillions of dollars intoour economy and adding over 900,000 American jobs.

Earlier this year, I proudly signed an Executive Order to ensure the truthful advertising of products claiming to be “Made in the U.S.A.”  I also recently directed all Federal agencies to purchase American-made goods to support the very citizens we are designed to serve, not our competitors abroad. Last year, I was proud to sign the historic Working Families Tax Cuts Act into law, making the 20 percentSmall Business Tax Deduction permanent — a single measure that will generate $750 billion in economic growth and create over 1 million Main Street jobs, empowering our domestic manufacturers to thrive like never before.  We are also delivering 100 percentexpensing for new factories, improvements, equipment, and research and development efforts while my Administration continues to strip away the needless regulations that have constrained our producers for far too long. The results speak for themselves:  To close out the first quarter of 2026, American manufacturing added jobs for the first time in 3 years, a powerful sign that a new Golden Age of American industrial might has only just begun.

Every product stamped Made in America is a proud salute to the American People, whose hard work, and grit sustain the prosperity of our Nation.  This week, we honor our workers, industries, and communities, whose labor powers the enduring strength of our glorious Republic. Together, we will forge an even greater and brighter future, one proudly built and Made in America.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim July 19 through July 25, 2026, as Made in America Week.  I call upon all Americans to pay special tribute to the builders, the ranchers, the crafters, the entrepreneurs, and all those who work with their hands every day to make America great.

​IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twentieth day of July, in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and fifty-first.

​​​​​​DONALD J. TRUMP
