This is an explicit direction in the order tied to taxpayer outcomes.
Identify Legal Mechanisms To Help Investors

The office is explicitly ordered to look for legal avenues to speed or ease investment approvals.
Helps Firms Team Up With National Labs
The Investment Accelerator is charged with facilitating research collaborations with U.S. national laboratories to support investors and companies building in the United States. The order explicitly includes increasing access to and use of national resources where appropriate and consistent with law.
