CNBC: It’s ‘absurd’ – 3M CEO defends coronavirus response after Trump invokes DPA
3M said earlier it was already working on getting more masks to the U.S. prior to Trump’s invocation of the Defense Production Act.
Mike Roman said “we saw this in January, we decided to double our production in January. Long before anyone called for a big step up in the United States.”
“The narrative that we aren’t doing everything we can as a company is just not true,” 3M CEO Mike Roman says, after President Trump criticized the manufacturing giant and invoked the DPA to force 3M to step up production of respirator masks. https://t.co/Lfa4xPqVwo pic.twitter.com/3cxA2FUDiu
