Is Walmart Living up to Its 'Made in America' Pledge? Plus, How American-Made Is Your Car?

Leslie is rejoined by Scott N. Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), a partnership established by some of America\u2019s leading manufacturers and the United Steelworkers union.

Here are the main items the two discussed:

-As Walmart kicks off its annual U.S. Manufacturing Summit in Arkansas on Tuesday, how is it doing in its 10-year commitment to purchase $250 billion in American-made goods. Also, how is it portraying it's progress in this area compared to reality.

-How Walmart's mass imports of Chinese goods cost the U.S. 400,000 jobs between 2001 and 2013.

-How even though you may think you have an American made car, there's a way to tell how American made it really is (something that Scott reveals to the audience while on air)
