President Trump has said he's invoking the Defense Production Act to ramp up production, but he hasn't wielded his federal powers yet as health officials voice alarm about potential shortages of lifesaving medical supplies for fighting coronavirus' spread
Trump signed the measure after several people urged him to act amid mounting concerns over a supplies shortage, a person familiar told CNN. But as he signed the emergency bill earlier this week, the administration had yet to conduct a full account of inventory across the nation, nor had it identified which companies it would need to make which products.
We are getting calls from automobile companies and other companies saying they have capacity and they want to make ventilators and other things. We are literally being besieged in a beautiful way by companies that want to do the work and help our country," Trump said.On Friday, the confusion continued when, on a call with House lawmakers, Democratic Rep. David Cicilline of Rhode Island pressed administration officials on how exactly the Defense Production Action was being used.
