Ted Lieu: Trump’s ‘Buy American’ Order ‘Really Does Nothing’; ‘It’s Just Show No Substance’

‘The executive order signed by the president does virtually nothing’

RUSH EXCERPT:

LIEU: "The executive order signed by the president does virtually nothing. I’m very familiar with the buy American act. When I served on active duty in the air force, I worked on some of these issues. The executive order says it’s going to be the policy of the executive branch to have a preference for American products. That is the law. Congress passed law in 1933 saying exactly that. So basically the executive order says follow the law. Yay, but really does nothing. It’s just show, no substance."
