Study on Domestic Manufacturing for Critical Infrastructure Supply Chains.

This Act requires the Secretary of Commerce to conduct a detailed study assessing the feasibility of manufacturing essential components for critical infrastructure sectors (like energy and communications) within the United States. The goal is to identify high-demand imported products currently constrained by domestic supply issues and analyze how bringing their production home would affect jobs and costs. This effort aims to enhance the security and reliability of public services for citizens.
Key points
The government will study which imported parts necessary for critical infrastructure (e.g., power grids, water systems) can be manufactured domestically.
The analysis will cover the impact of domestic production on creating new jobs and the final cost of these products.
A public report with recommendations for increasing US manufacturing will be submitted to Congress and made available online.
