The announcement highlights the latest section of the "Buy Clean" initiative, which is backed by multiple domestic steel producers. Among the most notable supporters are Cleveland-Cliffs out of
Toledo, Ohio, Nucor Corp., and Steel Dynamics. According to Kevin Dempsey, President and CEO of American Iron and Steel Institute, the move heavily prioritizes American-made steel. "Of the major steel-producing countries, the U.S. has the lowest C02 emissions per ton of steel produced," Dempsey said. "We're pleased the administration continues to recognize that the American steel industry is leading the way on decarbonization."
