President Donald Trump on Saturday signed two executive orders that call for immediately expanding American lumber production and addressing lumber imports’ threat to national security.
The orders aim to update guidance on production, streamline permitting, and assess possible risks that imports pose to national security.
A White House official told Fox News the president identified a crisis in both supply and demand in an industry the U.S. should be entirely self-sufficient in.
