Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill makes federal regulations the sole authority for labeling products as "Made in the U.S.A." or "Made in America," preventing individual states from imposing their own stricter labeling standards for products sold across state lines or internationally. The legislation amends existing federal law to explicitly override state laws that set different requirements for what qualifies as American-made, though states could still enforce rules against products using "Made in America" labels that don't comply with federal standards. The bill affects manufacturers, importers, and retailers who label and sell products in interstate or foreign commerce, as well as consumers relying on product origin labels. There is no new federal funding required, and the measure does not establish a timeline for implementation. The bill was introduced in the Senate in September 2023 and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation for review.
