 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Intergovernmental Critical Minerals Task Force Act

This bill directs the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to establish a task force to facilitate cooperation, coordination, and mutual accountability among each level of the federal government and state, local, tribal, and territorial governments on a holistic response to the dependence on covered countries for critical minerals across the United States.

Covered country includes any country determined by the task force to be a geostrategic competitor or adversary of the United States with respect to critical minerals.

The bill specifies duties for the task force, including

  • addressing the homeland and national security risks associated with the current critical mineral supply chains of the United States;
  • identifying a list of critical minerals most important for securing U.S. homeland and national security; and
  • providing recommendations addressing research and development, mining, and strengthening the domestic workforce to support, and improving partnerships with allied countries to improve, critical mineral supply chains.
