Federal Manufacturing Task Force Created
Vice President Gore has announced the creation of an interagency task force to recommend ways to strengthen the U.S. manufacturing sector for the 21st century. Gene Sperling, director of the National Economic Council, will lead the group, charged with presenting specific recommendations on how government policies and programs can preserve and enhance American manufacturing.
The work of the Manufacturing Task Force is to be completed by early next year, providing time to incorporate any recommendations for changes into the Administration’s FY 2001 budget request. Other federal agencies serving on the task force were not identified in the Vice President’s announcement.
