Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump on Tuesday will sign an executive order directing federal agencies to implement the "Buy American, Hire American" rhetoric of his campaign.
The order looks to bolster protections for certain American-made goods and calls for a review of the H-1B visa program for skilled workers, with the goal of reforming the program, senior administration officials said.

Trump will sign the executive order during a trip Tuesday to Kenosha, Wisconsin,

Farmers, workers fearful of Trump immigration 04:



The executive order, though, does not take direct action to fundamentally change either portion, instead initiating a series of reviews and assessments and calling on federal departments to begin proposing reforms to the programs. The order would send a clear signal to federal agencies responsible for enforcing the programs that the administration wants to see a more aggressive stance, officials said.

But the CEO, Nicholas Pinchuk, pointed not to measures to protect American-made goods or reforms to the H1-B visa program, but rather to more training for workers.

Trump narrowly defeated his rival Hillary Clinton in the county -- by only 238 votes -- in a 47%-to-47% split................
