Made in America Week, 2026 – Corrected Proclamation

To designate a week to encourage Americans to purchase American-made products, thereby promoting domestic manufacturing and economic patriotism.

Constitutional concerns with the original

  1. None – the proclamation is purely ceremonial, imposes no legal obligations, and does not involve spending or regulation. It is a routine exercise of the President's inherent Article II authority to issue proclamations.

Solution text

By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation. Section 1. Designation. The week of May 17 through May 23, 2026, is hereby proclaimed as "Made in America Week." I call upon Federal, State, and local officials, as well as private organizations and the people of the United States, to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and educational programs that highlight the importance of purchasing American-made goods and supporting domestic manufacturing. Section 2. Authority. This proclamation is issued under the President's authority under Article II, Section 3 of the Constitution, which directs the President to recommend to the Congress such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient, and under the President's inherent authority to communicate with the public and recognize important national values. This proclamation does not create any binding legal obligation, impose any penalty, or authorize any expenditure of public funds. Section 3. Sunset. This proclamation shall expire on May 24, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, and shall have no further force or effect thereafter. Section 4. Judicial Review. Because this proclamation imposes no legal duties or restrictions, it is not subject to judicial review under Article III of the Constitution. Any person challenging the proclamation on the grounds that it exceeds the President's authority must demonstrate a concrete injury traceable to the proclamation, and the exclusive remedy, if any, is declaratory relief that the proclamation is advisory only.

Bipartisan rationale

Both Democrats and Republicans support American manufacturing and economic patriotism. This corrected proclamation clarifies that the President is acting within his Article II authority, not encroaching on Congress's power to regulate commerce or spend money. It also respects the Tenth Amendment by calling on but not commandeering state and local officials. By including a clear sunset and statement of non-binding effect, the proclamation avoids any risk of later being used as a pretext for executive overreach. Both parties would prefer this version because it preserves institutional balance while still achieving the desired symbolic recognition.
