Study Commission Established for U.S. Sovereign Wealth Fund Creation

This bill establishes a commission to study the feasibility of creating a national sovereign wealth fund for the United States. The commission will analyze potential revenue sources, such as natural resources or existing government assets, and how the fund would invest in stocks, bonds, and real estate. Crucially for citizens, the study will examine whether fund profits could be used for direct payments (dividends) to the public, funding government programs, or how it might affect inflation and the housing market.
