The Supply Chain Council, a new bipartisan advocacy group, launched a first-of-its-kind group dedicated to bringing business and labor together to protect American jobs, invest in domestic infrastructure and safeguard the supply chain and economy from global instability.
“The U.S. supply chain is the backbone of our economy. Its strength determines the strength of every industry and job in our country,” says Supply Chain Council CEO Josh Wood. “The Supply Chain Council will provide a unique voice at the local, state and federal level and we’re excited about working with partners in the public and private sector to ensure the national supply chain is both strong and resilient.”
Key takeaways:
- The Supply Chain Council is the only unified, national organization bringing together each link of the supply chain across every industry – from port to porch. With a mission to develop and advance the best practices and public policies at the federal, state and local level, the Council will work to ensure supply chains are protected and resilient in a rapidly changing global environment.
“It’s vital that we come together to protect and support the engine that drives America forward. Everyone has a part to play,” says Steven Hussain, Supply Chain Council Board Member and Prologis SVP. “We look forward to working collaboratively to find common ground and advance common-sense solutions that will strengthen our economy and help people and businesses get the products they need.”
