Military members would need 'Made in America' optional combat boots for their uniforms.
This bill would require that optional combat boots worn by members of the Armed Forces as part of their uniform must be entirely made in the United States. Military members would need to choose boots that meet these new rules, unless there's a medical or special military need.
Today, there is no specific rule requiring optional combat boots worn by service members to be entirely manufactured in the United States. If this bill becomes law, the Secretary of Defense would create rules within about two years to make sure these boots are fully made in the U.S. using American materials and parts, with some exceptions for medical or special military needs.
