Haley Makes Big Push For American Companies

President Trump’s UN Ambassador is fighting for American companies. Making a push to get them more UN contracts.

According to Fox News:

As part of Nikki Haley’s push to advance the Trump administration’s “America First” agenda at the United Nations, the hard-charging ambassador is fighting for U.S. businesses to get a bigger slice of the more than $18 billion in contracts the world body hands out each year.

The U.S. already is the biggest recipient of these procurement contracts, but officials say that number is growing since Haley took office. In 2017, the U.S. won $1.74 billion in contracts — approximately 9 percent of the $18.6 billion available. The next highest was India, which picked up 4.8 percent of all contracts.

That marks almost a 10 percent uptick in contracts awarded to U.S. businesses from 2016.

But Haley and the U.S. Mission aren’t done, and are looking at ways to get more lucrative contracts awarded. It’s part of a broader effort by Haley and the Trump administration to make sure the United Nations’ biggest contributor gets a better deal there.

Haley touted the quality of American craftsmanship and pushed the idea that the UN will get its money worth in giving more contracts to US companies.
