The U.S. Council on Competitiveness congratulates President-elect Trump and looks forward to working on issues affecting U.S. productivity and prosperity.
Over the 30-year history of the Council, our nonpartisan membership of CEOs, university presidents, labor leaders and heads of national labs has worked with presidents on both sides of the aisle to ensure the private-sector perspective is represented in policy discussions to enhance productivity growth, raise the standard of living for all Americans and expand markets for U.S. products and services.
We look forward to working with the President-elect and the new Congress to address critical competitiveness issues that transcend politics from increased investment in scientific research to expanding and enhancing the U.S. innovation ecosystem of industry, world-class universities and national labs. With the ongoing national energy transformation from scarcity to abundance, we will work to ensure a strong, vibrant, domestic manufacturing base. And, most importantly, we need to ensure Americans have access to the education and skills necessary to succeed.
The Council will release its Clarion Call on December 9, 2016, providing an assessment of U.S. competitiveness and a robust set of recommendation for the incoming administration and Congress.
