What this bill would do

This bill is known as the Reforming Cement Manufacturing for Enhanced Material Efficiency and New Technology Act or the ReCement Act. It was introduced in the House of Representatives on June 11, 2026. The legislation amends the Solid Waste Disposal Act. Specifically, it changes the definition of what counts as solid waste. The bill excludes certain recovered materials, recovered resources, and non-hazardous secondary materials from the definition of solid waste. These materials can then be used as ingredients or fuels in making cement or clinker under specific conditions.
