Section 1, quoted from the order

Verbatim text from the signed document. These are the words of the document, not SaveYourState’s.

To maximize my Administration's historic investments in America's reindustrialization and economic growth, my Administration will fully equip the American worker to produce world-class products and implement world-leading technologies. My Administration will also consolidate and streamline fragmented Federal workforce development programs that are too disconnected from propelling workers into secure, well- paying, and high-need American jobs.
