This bill would create the Strategic Resilience Reserve Corporation, a new government entity, to secure the supply of vital minerals and materials.

The corporation would offer financial support to businesses and manage a reserve of these essential materials.
Today, the United States relies heavily on imports for many critical minerals, making it vulnerable to supply disruptions and market manipulation by countries like China. After this bill, a new government corporation, the Strategic Resilience Reserve Corporation, would be created with $2.5 billion to finance and acquire these vital materials. This would help stabilize prices, boost domestic and partner country production, and reduce U.S. dependence on unreliable foreign sources.
