AN ACT relating to public contracts.

Summary

The bill forces any contract for foundation construction or its upkeep on state, city, county, special district, or school properties to use iron, steel, or aluminum that is manufactured in the United States, starting after August 1, 2026. Agencies can ask for a waiver if the rule would conflict with the public interest, if domestic supply is insufficient, or if it would raise contract costs by more than 10 %, and the waiver request must be posted for public comment. Contractors who falsely label foreign metal as “Made in America” can be barred from future public contracts.
