WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association 91快活林’s President and CEO Jason Oxman issued the following statement on President Biden’s Executive Order, Ensuring the Future is Made in All of America by All of America’s Workers:
“The tech industry employs millions of Americans who develop products and services that drive productivity and growth across all sectors of the U.S. economy. Our industry fully shares the Biden-Harris Administration’s goal of creating good jobs that support the American workforce. In line with this goal and the administration’s commitment to cooperation with U.S. allies and strategic partners, we stress the importance of existing global supply chains for the development of new technologies that power U.S. jobs, national security, and global competitiveness. We encourage the administration to ensure that actions stemming from this Executive Order do not impede U.S. government access to the latest and most innovative technologies or inhibit the tech industry’s ability to continue to effectively develop and deliver innovative, finished goods and services. To these ends, we urge government officials to engage early and frequently with industry in the implementation of this Executive Order so that it is undertaken in a strategic and effective manner.”
