Requires yellow road paint pigments for federal projects to be fully made in the U.S.
This bill would ensure yellow pigments for federally funded road, highway, and airport markings are made entirely in the U.S. It changes current "Buy America" rules to explicitly include these yellow colorings as "construction materials." This means the full manufacturing process, from start to finish, would need to occur domestically, impacting manufacturers and contractors.
Currently, certain yellow organic pigments in road, highway, and airport markings are not explicitly covered by "Buy America" rules, so they don't have to be U.S.-made for federal projects. If passed, this bill would add these specific yellow pigments to the list of "construction materials" that must be fully manufactured in the United States. This change would apply immediately to water-based paints and to all other formulas containing these pigments two years after the bill becomes law.
