Vance chairs manufacturing roundtable with steel industry in Pittsburgh

Vice President JD Vance chaired a roundtable on manufacturing employment in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on April 6, 2026, with steel and aluminum executives who have benefited from the administration's Section 232 tariffs. The administration cited the Pittsburgh meetings as evidence of a domestic manufacturing rebound driven by tariff-based industrial policy; steel industry representatives cited increased domestic orders following reimposition of tariffs in 2025.
