Ends a rule requiring companies to report on minerals from war-torn areas.

This bill would end a rule that makes public companies tell everyone if their products contain certain minerals from conflict areas. This means companies would no longer need to track and share where these minerals come from. The change would affect companies that follow these rules, as well as shoppers and investors who use this information.

What Would Change

Today, publicly traded companies must investigate and report if their products contain certain "conflict minerals" from specific regions. If this bill becomes law, companies would no longer have this legal obligation to track these minerals or disclose their findings to the public.

Key Provisions

Ends the rule that requires publicly traded companies to report on their use of certain minerals from conflict areas.
Removes the specific section from the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that created these reporting duties.
Deletes the related section from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
