AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would create a government-owned corporation called the Strategic Resilience Reserve Corporation of the United States to support supplies and prices of critical minerals and materials. A 7-member board appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate would run it. The Reserve could buy, store, and sell critical minerals, make loans to approved private intermediaries, and use other financing tools, but could not benefit or sell to entities tied to countries such as China. It would keep a list of eligible minerals, collect market data, assess supply risks, and evaluate environmental and labor standards. The bill authorizes $2.5 billion for the Reserve.
