Act No. 256
Summary
The law mandates that any iron or steel product permanently incorporated in a state‑funded construction project must be produced in the United States. It applies to contracts entered into by state or local public entities, but allows exemptions for supply shortages, cost increases over 25%, or broader public‑interest concerns. Limited amounts of foreign steel may be used under strict cost and percentage limits.
