Summary
The SECURE Minerals Act sets up a federal reserve and a board of governors to identify, acquire, and manage critical minerals that are essential for the economy and national defense. It targets U.S. producers, private intermediaries, and the broader supply chain to cut reliance on imports, especially from China. The bill also requires oversight, audits, and public reporting of the reserve’s activities.
