Relating to: preference in state and local government contracts and procurement for materials manufactured in the United States. (FE)

Summary

The bill directs Wisconsin state agencies and municipalities to give preference to materials manufactured in the United States when purchasing for public projects, unless federal law, a treaty, or specific exemptions apply. It adds contract language that obligates contractors to use U.S.-made materials and bars bidding methods that favor geographic location. The goal is to support domestic manufacturing while allowing flexibility when supplies are insufficient or other constraints exist.
