Boosting Domestic Production of Protective Equipment for Health Emergencies.
This act aims to ensure the United States has enough domestically produced personal protective equipment, like masks and gloves. This means that in future health crises, citizens will have better access to essential protective gear, and the country will be less reliant on foreign suppliers. The act supports American businesses and jobs while enhancing national health security.
Key points
The government will partner with U.S. manufacturers to guarantee a steady supply of protective equipment for public health emergencies.
Protective equipment must be made in the U.S., and companies must meet high quality and safety standards.
Federal funds cannot be used to buy protective clothing or equipment manufactured outside the United States.
A report is required on how changes in PPE rules affect the safety of frontline healthcare workers.
