Presidential Message on National Forest Products WeekEditorial illustrationLIVE

Presidential Message on National Forest Products Week

From the misty evergreens of the Pacific Northwest to the hardwood ridges of Appalachia, America’s forests are among our Nation’s greatest natural treasures. During National Forest Products Week, we renew our commitment to conserving these incredible landscapes and responsibly harnessing their abundance to sustain households, strengthen American jobs and industry, and secure lasting prosperity for generations to come. The woodlands of America helped build our Nation from the ground up, giving generations of citizens the resources to raise homes, establish businesses, and pursue their dreams. That proud tradition continues today in our logging, forestry, manufacturing, and construction industries, where the bounty of our land meets the skill and resolve of our people in communities across our country. As President, I am committed to supporting these vital industries and continuing to drive economic growth. Last year, I was proud to sign two Executive Orders to increase domestic timber supply and reduce reliance on imports from foreign markets. As a result, over half a billion dollars in new domestic industry investments were announced, annual industry earnings have increased by over $5,600, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service has sold over three billion board feet of American timber this year, the highest volume sold in almost three decades. Under my leadership, the USDA Forest Service has also championed sustainable forests, achieving…

The Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) evaluated President Trump’s impact on the manufacturing sector— reviewing his second term to date.

Manufacturing jobs are reshoring in America after the Biden Administration shipped over 200,000 American jobs overseas in its last two years, factory construction is soaring as President Trump’s tariff policies incentivized companies to make their products here in the USA.

Now the world’s largest energy exporter, the United States continues to strengthen its leadership across the energy sector, while a new renaissance in American steel production is reinforcing domestic industrial capacity. The manufacturing resurgence we are witnessing reinforces America’s dominance as a global leader, but also has positive impacts on the labor sector as we see more American jobs, increased wages, and company expansions that stimulate Main Street local economies…

Presidential Message on Leif Erikson Day

Half a millennium before legendary American hero Christopher Columbus set foot in the New World, Norse explorer Leif Erikson made history as the first European to arrive on the North American continent. This Leif Erikson Day, we celebrate his exceptional legacy of bravery, daring, and exploration as we build upon our extraordinary relationships with our Nordic partners and open a glorious new chapter in America’s Arctic story. Born in 970, Leif Erikson developed a love for exploration and adventure that he would carry through his entire life, a calling that would change the world for centuries to come. His steadfast Christian faith gave him the conviction to sail into the unknown, voyaging over 1,800 miles across the Atlantic with a small crew of 35 men and overcoming raging winds, crashing waves, and crippling storms to reach the shores of L’Anse aux Meadows in northern Newfoundland, Canada—the land he named “ Vinland .” In doing so, he opened the door between two worlds and proved that no ocean could hold back the course of discovery—the same daring spirit that would one…

President Trump Is Putting American Industry, Jobs, and Paychecks Back on the Map

President Donald J. Trump is delivering on his promise to the American worker: build it here, power it here, and put paychecks back in the communities Washington left behind. In a matter of weeks, President Trump has locked in a run of steel, nuclear, gas, shipbuilding, and medical manufacturing commitments that will hire American workers and strengthen American security. President Trump announced that Mesabi Metallics will build a $15 billion steel complex in Iowa — the largest steel plant ever built in the United States. Fed by American iron ore and driven by the Trump Administration’s steel tariffs, the fully integrated mine-to-mill complex will create 1,750 new, permanent jobs, support up to 6,000 construction jobs, and generate an estimated $95 billion in economic output. President Trump and Anduril announced Arsenal-2, the biggest new American shipyard push since World War II, now moving forward in Maryland. The yard will produce critical Virginia-class components and large assemblies, create about 3,100 direct jobs, and support more than 11,000 indirect jobs.

During National Energy Dominance Month, we recommit to unleashing the full might of America’s vast natural resources, strengthening our Nation’s energy independence, and ushering in a new era of American energy dominance. In less than 2 years since returning to office, my Administration has transformed the United States into the most dominant energy superpower in the history of the world. We have reversed the disastrous oil, gas, and vehicle regulations that crippled our industries, burdened consumers, and stifled economic growth, including rescinding the Obama-era Endangerment Finding this past February — a ruling that handed Washington bureaucrats sweeping power to over regulate our vehicles and power plants in the name of climate alarmism. Its repeal stands as the single largest deregulatory action in American history. We have unleashed millions of acres of Federal land for oil, gas, and coal production, approving over 6,000 drilling permits — more than in any year in over a…

Columbus Day, 2026

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA More than five centuries ago, Christopher Columbus embarked westward across uncharted waters and discovered the New World — bringing with him the rich traditions of Western civilization and paving the way to the birth of the American Nation less than three centuries later. Today, we honor his life of valor, adventure, and ingenuity. We cherish his memory and pledge to safeguard his story. Above all, we remember with gratitude that the triumph of freedom and the glory of our Republic are the fruits of his faith and unrelenting devotion. In August of 1492, Columbus departed the shores of Spain to chart a new trade route to Asia. With his crew of about 90 men aboard the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa María, for more than 2 grueling months, he pressed onward across the vast and unforgiving Atlantic Ocean — braving violent storms and treacherous waters. Through every trial, Columbus never wavered, holding his crew to the mission when most others would have turned back. When Columbus and his crew made…

Presidential Message on German American Day

The German American story began on October 6, 1683, when 13 families from Krefeld, after braving the Atlantic in search of opportunity, landed on our shores and soon founded Germantown, Pennsylvania—the first permanent German settlement in America. In the centuries since, German Americans have farmed the fields of our heartland and powered the industries that turned our young country into the mightiest economic powerhouse in the world . Their sons and daughters have defended American freedom in every era, serving valiantly in both World Wars and standing watch through the long struggle against communism during the Cold War. In our own time, their descendants continue to serve in our Armed Forces, work the factories and family farms that sustain our Nation, and lead the businesses and communities that keep the American Dream alive for all of our citizens. This spirit endures in the long-standing relationship between the United States and Germany—a relationship sustained by our mutual respect, and a shared desire for peace and prosperity.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING: President Trump Delivers Immediate Diesel Relief, Saving Americans Up to $100 Per Fill

Last night, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order that immediately cuts diesel costs by authorizing highway use of tax-free dyed diesel and deferring the federal diesel excise tax through the end of the year. The decisive action — expected to save drivers as much as $100 per fill — puts real money back in the pockets of farmers, ranchers, truckers, loggers, and working families at the exact moment harvest demands it most. Here’s what they’re saying: President Donald J. Trump : “Today, I am announcing another unprecedented step to bring down costs. For many years, farm vehicles, construction equipment, and other off-road vehicles have used what is known as ‘red dye’ diesel… which is exactly the same as normal diesel, but is sold tax-free for off-road vehicles and big trucks… Tonight, I am going to sign a historic Executive Order to officially waive the off-road requirement and allow anyone to purchase tax-free red dye diesel for any reason.” Vice President JD Vance : “Another example of President Trump acting quickly to tackle an urgent issue.
