Assistant Secretary for Investment Security Chris Pilkerton and @SBAgov Administrator Kelly Loeffler visited Hanwha @PhillyShipyard to highlight how trusted foreign investment can strengthen U.S. supply chains, support American jobs, and advance our national security.

The visit also highlighted a new Treasury initiative: the Strategic Vendor Program, which will connect CFIUS-reviewed companies with a resilient, U.S.-based network of suppliers and vendors.

[Kelly Loeffler @SBA_Kelly]

.@POTUS secured a multi-billion dollar commitment from Hanwha to support U.S. shipbuilding. Today, at Hanwha Philly Shipyard, they are bringing back hundreds of good-paying jobs, bolstering national security, AND supporting small business suppliers up and down the Delaware Valley.

Fair trade isn’t just about onshoring critical industries. It’s about reviving the communities that built America into an exceptional nation.

Today, @USTreasury, as Chair of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, launched a dedicated CFIUS website that modernizes how information is organized and introduces new features to help parties better understand and navigate CFIUS processes.

By providing earlier touchpoints with the Committee, clearer guidance on our procedures, and practical examples of risks and mitigation, this website will help parties move more efficiently through the CFIUS process and engage with the Committee early and effectively.
