What this bill would do
The Promoting Resilient Supply Chains Act of 2025 creates a program within the Department of Commerce to protect critical supply chains and emerging technologies. It assigns the Assistant Secretary of Commerce new duties to monitor supply chain stability and encourage domestic manufacturing. The bill establishes a Supply Chain Resilience Working Group involving multiple federal agencies to map vulnerabilities and prepare for supply chain shocks. It requires the government to identify critical goods and industries and develop a national strategy for resiliency. This effort focuses on reducing reliance on certain foreign countries and increasing partnerships with allies. The act expires 10 years after it becomes law.
