President's Message -- Buy American Amendment

Due to recent negotiations, The Buy American Act of 2009 has been amended.

EFC has worked within Manufacturing Coalition spearheaded by CME on the removal of the barriers to Canadian Exports stemming from the provisions of the Buy American Act.

Although change to the Act is still required, the agreement is a positive step towards removing barriers and exports to the United States.
