Original Note:
President Biden's claim that a law exists mandating government spend on American goods is accurate thanks to the 1933 Buy American Act. However, saying the majority of officials have not enforced it is oversimplified. Many complexities and exemptions exist. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/03/31/fact-sheet-the-american-jobs-plan/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/interactive/2021/biden-fact-checker-100-days/
