TRUMP EFFECT: Johnson & Johnson’s $55 Billion Investment in American Manufacturing
Today, Johnson & Johnson announced a new $55 billion investment in the United States over the next four years in manufacturing, research and development, and technology — the latest massive victory in President Donald J. Trump’s unrelenting pursuit of American manufacturing dominance.

The company said it represents a “25% increase in investment compared to the previous four years” and builds on their “already elevated U.S. investment levels resulting from the passage of the 2017 Tax Cuts & Jobs Act” under President Trump’s leadership.

Call it the Trump Effect. In recent weeks:

Prepac, a Canadian furniture manufacturer, announced it will move production from Canada to the U.S.
