WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump hosted chief executive officers and industry leaders at Cross Hall in the White House for an “Invest in America” event on April 30 to celebrate trillions of dollars in business development and manufacturing investments.

“The entire Trump economic agenda is about making it easier to do business in America, to create jobs in America, to hire American workers, and to build your factories here in America, not in China, or any other country,” Trump said.
