Boosting PPE Stockpile and Domestic Manufacturing for Emergencies

This act aims to ensure the United States has enough personal protective equipment (PPE) like masks and gloves for future pandemics. It requires most PPE for the national stockpile to be made in the U.S., strengthening supply chain security. Additionally, companies manufacturing this equipment domestically will receive tax credits, potentially impacting future product availability and costs.
Key points
Most PPE for the national stockpile must be produced in the U.S. to secure supplies during crises.
Companies manufacturing PPE in the U.S. can receive tax credits, supporting domestic economy and job creation.
The government will regularly report on PPE stockpile levels, increasing transparency and preparedness for future threats.
