American Made Federal Uniforms and Apparel Act of 2026

This bill would bar federal agencies from using federal funds to buy clothing, uniforms, and related textile materials unless every material and component is grown, reprocessed, reused, or produced in the United States. The rule would also cover items that are leased, rented, or supplied by contractors, such as through laundry or uniform-management contracts. Exceptions would apply when domestic items cannot be obtained in sufficient quality and quantity at U.S. market prices, for certain purchases outside the U.S. or in urgent situations, for purchases at or below the micro-purchase threshold, and for items bought to resell in agency gift shops and similar stores. The rule would take effect 180 days after enactment, would apply even where trade agreements say otherwise, and would require yearly reports to Congress on how it is being carried out.
