                Secretary for Economic Affairs, Department of Commerce, 1401
                Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20230, (301) 278-9268, or

                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Secretary of Commerce and the Advisor to
                the President overseeing the Office of Economic Initiatives serve as
                the co-chairs of the Advisory Board. In addition to the co-chairs, the
                Advisory Board comprises 25 members that represent various sectors of
                the economy. The Board advises the National Council for the American
                Worker.
                 Exceptional Circumstances: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.150(b), the
                notice for this meeting is given less than 15 calendar days prior to
                the meeting due to the exceptional circumstances caused by the novel
                COVID-19 outbreak, resulting in the proclamation of a national
                emergency by the President on March 13, 2020. This quick turnaround
                meeting is necessary to enable the American Workforce Policy Advisory
                Board to leverage the experience and knowledge of the Board Members to
                provide immediate workforce policy recommendations to the President's
                National Council for the American Worker to accelerate the re-
                employment of American workers and the Nation's economic recovery.
                Sabrina L. Montes,
                Designated Federal Official, American Workforce Policy Advisory Board,
                Bureau of Economic Analysis.
