Thank you, @SenTedBuddNC, for joining our Skilled Trades for America Forum and for your commitment to building a workforce that powers America’s economy. We appreciate your leadership in expanding opportunities for Americans to pursue rewarding careers in the skilled trades.
The stability of America’s workforce depends on a modern approach to employee development. At the NC Business Roundtable, I discussed my Employer-Directed Skills Act, which expands access to valuable skills programs for businesses to recruit & retain qualified workers, strengthening our workforce.
We're pleased to announce that Ambassador Kristen Silverberg, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Business Roundtable (@BizRoundtable), will speak at the 2026 Reagan National Economic Forum.

American businesses, including the auto industry, succeed when North American supply chains are strong, integrated and globally competitive. Extending USMCA is essential to supporting U.S. jobs, driving investment and strengthening America’s leadership in advanced manufacturing.
In a Washington Examiner op-ed, BRT SVP of Policy Matt Sonnesyn makes the case for modernizing the federal permitting process and passing strong surface transportation reauthorization legislation: https://t.co/n1o1i917it
USMCA is a proven engine for American manufacturing and U.S. competitiveness. As @ShopFloorNAM’s new report makes clear, extending the trilateral agreement is essential to supporting U.S. jobs, investment and integrated supply chains.
2 million American jobs. 15 of 18 manufacturing sectors exporting more. Billions in new U.S. investment.
Our new report—"Built to Spec"— shows the USMCA is a proven engine for manufacturing in America. As @JayTimmonsNAM says, it's time to preserve it, strengthen it and lead with it.

This program represents an important step toward building a future-ready skills development system that expands opportunity, strengthens U.S. competitiveness and sustains a world-class workforce. We look forward to continuing to work with policymakers to build on this progress.
BRT applauds the Trump Administration for implementing the new federal Workforce Pell Grant program – a priority with longstanding bipartisan support that will help students and workers gain in-demand skills more quickly and affordably. https://t.co/nRCpvcdBB4
Great piece from @SenMikeLee on the urgent need for comprehensive bipartisan permitting reform. A more efficient, predictable and durable permitting process is essential to building the energy and infrastructure projects needed to strengthen U.S. competitiveness. https://t.co/bamDuuPaBQ
We thank @RepGuthrie, @RepJohnJoyce and members of the data privacy working group for their leadership on this critical issue. BRT will continue collaborating with lawmakers in both parties and the Administration as this essential legislation moves forward.
BRT joined business organizations in welcoming House introduction of comprehensive legislation that would establish a single national privacy standard. Read the full statement here: https://t.co/GvLckOulAz
The SECURE Data Act draws on strong, proven state privacy frameworks developed on a bipartisan basis. Ending a confusing patchwork of state laws would strengthen trust, protect consumers and give businesses the certainty needed to innovate, secure data and drive growth.
