In the stunning flow of President Donald J. Trump’s necessary governmental reforms, it is hard to keep up with what media has called the “fire hose of news.” Your local robust conservative outlet, Tulsa Today, is therefore glad to highlight a Presidential Executive Order we hope becomes a part of future legislation. It is focused on Federal Grantmaking “while ending offensive waste of tax dollars.”
The Executive Order is reproduced below and should be in every grant writers’ top drawer.
A new study from Construction Coverage has identified the U.S. metros and states with the most construction workers and the Tulsa metro has a total of 27,438 construction industry employees. That 6.9 percent of the workforce is 0.8 points higher than the national average of 6.1 percent.
The U.S. construction industry faces a high degree of uncertainty in 2025. On one hand, demand for new housing and infrastructure remains high, driven by a persistent housing shortage and a wave of federal investment. On the other hand, the sector is grappling with notable headwinds: labor shortages have tightened the market for skilled workers, while overall construction spending has slowed in recent months amid elevated interest rates and broader economic uncertainty.
Last week, President Donald J. Trump held a historic summit with Chairman of the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana Marshall Pierite, weeks after the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe announced they would be formally nominating President Trump for the honor of the Nobel Peace Prize.
An article advocating for greater economic cooperation between America’s Indian tribes and the U.S. government by Chairman Pierite reportedly caught the attention of President Trump earlier this year, prompting the summit. During their meeting, President Trump and Chairman Pierite discussed the unique position of Indian sovereignty and authority over tribal lands, and how to capitalize on the opportunity for the mutual benefit of the tribes and the American people Chairman Pierite noted in a media release.
“I believe we can foster a new spirit of cooperation that will see the expansion of energy production plants, data centers, housing, and technology through partnership between the federal government and Indian Country,” Chairman Pierite said, adding that the cooperation between the Trump administration and various Indian tribes would be “a major catalyst for job creation and prosperity for both Native Americans and all Americans.”
Analysis: The facts are clear. The U.S. economy grew at a 3.0% pace in Q2, shattering economists’ expectations. For those keeping score, nearly three-fourths of the economists surveyed by Bloomberg got it wrong. President Donald J. Trump was right. Could it be true that experts are simply drips under pressure to preform?
