Unearth America’s Future Act

HR 4350, the Unearth America's Future Act, establishes a national center to strengthen critical material supply chains while promoting environmental sustainability and worker protections. The bill creates a loan program to fund domestic and foreign facilities manufacturing critical materials essential for national security, energy, and economic competitiveness, with requirements for environmental practices, workforce development, and supply chain transparency. It also provides tax credits for critical material investment and production, prioritizing recycling, qualified substitutes, and innovative technologies to reduce reliance on vulnerable supply chains. The act directly affects manufacturers of critical materials, federal agencies managing supply chains, and workers in the critical materials industry.
