President Donald Trump on Friday invoked the Defense Production Act (DPA) to stop U.S. companies from exporting N95 respirators and other critical personal protective equipment and medical supplies, to ensure that American hospitals and health care facilities are equipped to weather the CCP virus pandemic.<\/p>\n

Trump said in a statement<\/a> that his order \u201cis another step in our ongoing fight to prevent hoarding, price gouging, and profiteering by preventing the harmful export of critically needed PPE [personal protective equipment].\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ability of wartime profiteers to purchase domestic supplies of scarce and critical materials, hoard them while they engage in profiteering and speculation, and then export them can generate foreign demand, and lead to price gouging. This conduct denies our country and our people the materials they need to win the war against the virus,\u201d the president wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cWartime profiteers may include a large army of speculators and warehouse operators operating in the dark corners of our markets,\u201d he added. \u201cThey may also include some well-established PPE distributors with the ability to unscrupulously divert PPE inventories from domestic customers, such as hospitals and State governments, to foreign purchasers willing to pay significant premiums.\u201d<\/p>\n

At a White House briefing, Trump said that acting Homeland Security chief Chad Wolf will work with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to prevent the export of the critical supplies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need these items immediately for domestic use. We have to have them,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n

The Defense Production Act, passed in 1950, grants the president the power to expand industrial production of crucial materials or products for national security and other reasons.<\/p>\n

The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus<\/a>, also known as the novel coronavirus, infected over 275,500 and killed 7,087 in the United States by April 3, according to data<\/a> on confirmed cases.<\/p>\n

Trump noted that his administration had already moved<\/a> to prevent the price gouging and hoarding of critical supplies amid the CCP virus pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have already leveraged the DPA to stop the hoarding and price gouging of crucial supplies,\u201d the president said.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder that authority this week the Department of Health and Human Services, working with the Department of Justice took custody of nearly 200,000 N95 respirators, 130,000 surgical masks, 600,000 gloves, as well as bottles\u2014many, many, many bottles\u2014and disinfectant sprays that were being hoarded,\u201d he said. Adding that all the items are being sent to health care workers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Trump said the federal government is providing about 8.1 million N95 respirators, 200,000 of which have been given to New York City.<\/p>\n

Trump on March 27 authorized the use of the DPA<\/a> to compel General Motors to move faster on producing ventilators.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, he again authorized the use of the DPA<\/a> for more companies, to further ramp up ventilator production in the United States.<\/p>\n
