This bill aims to make America’s most important supply chains stronger and less likely to break during crises. It puts the Commerce Department in charge of a new effort to track risks, plan for shocks (like disasters, pandemics, or cyberattacks), and work with other federal agencies, states, colleges, and industry to keep critical goods available. The department must set up a Supply Chain Resilience Working Group, map and model key supply chains, spot weak points, and recommend ways to boost U.S. manufacturing and reduce over‑reliance on risky foreign sources. It also encourages moving production to the United States or to allied countries when needed to protect access to critical goods and technologies .
Companies that share sensitive supply chain information with the government can choose to do so voluntarily, and that information is protected from public release under freedom‑of‑information rules and limited in how it can be used, with certain exceptions for law enforcement and Congress. Sharing is not required, and private entities don’t have to follow any recommendations they don’t want to adopt . The department must file reports: a one‑year implementation update, an annual national strategy starting at 18 months, and a two‑year review of its own capabilities. No new funding is authorized, and the law ends 10 years after it takes effect. The work also looks at how supply chain shocks could affect rural, Tribal, and underserved communities .
