Made in America: Are You In?

There has been quite a buzz recently and it’s heard all across the USA throughout the AIBD and beyond.  The concept of buying American isn’t a new one and I’m sure everyone’s heard it before but, for some reason it appears to be different this time.

Very few topics have gathered as much interest as this story has in such a short period of time and I encourage everyone to check out the Diane Sawyer story on Buy American by clicking the image to the left

 

"World News" Wants to Hear from You

"World News with Diane Sawyer" is gearing up for a "Made in America Christmas" and we need your help.

The average American will spend $700 on holiday gifts and goodies this year, totaling more than $465 billion, the National Retail Federation estimates. If that money was spent entirely on US made products it would create 4.6 million jobs. But it doesn't even have to be that big. If each of us spent just $64 on American made goods during our holiday shopping, the result would be 200,000 new jobs.

Now we want to know, are you in? If so, we want to hear from you. How are you planning on spending your $64?

 

AIBD: Spec American

I have a feeling there are some wondering why or how this “Buy American” article is relevant to the AIBD and why would I post this here.  The New Year, 2012 will host many new things for the American Institute of Building Design.  The Arizona Society AIBD and Steve Mickley were recently speaking about the concept of buying American and the question was raised; “wouldn’t the phrase be more relevant to the AIBD if it was “Spec American?”

Personally, I think this is a great idea and I’ve committed my efforts in both the buying and the specification of American made products into the designs that I’m responsible for.  I challenge the same of every single Member of the American Institute of Building Design to do the same.

I plan to display a Buy American and or Spec American image long after this story gets archived in support of this effort.  I hope you’ll join me in spreading the word.
