Hagerty and Cortez Masto Introduce Bipartisan Bill to Enhance U.S. Mineral Resources

Senators Bill Hagerty and Catherine Cortez Masto recently unveiled a bipartisan bill aimed at bolstering U.S. mineral security and combating foreign price manipulation. The Restoring American Mineral Security Act, introduced on September 17, 2025, seeks to establish a Critical Minerals Security Alliance to counter the alleged efforts of countries like China and Russia to disrupt global mineral prices, affecting American market stability.

Central to this legislation is the formation of a coalition of member nations exempt from tariffs on critical minerals to foster robust trade ties and collaborative strategies against unfair trade practices. Senator Hagerty underscored the bill’s significance in safeguarding national and economic security, with Senator Cortez Masto stressing the necessity for a united front to address China’s alleged market machinations.

In addition to tariff exemptions, the bill proposes redirecting tariff revenues into U.S. mineral projects, complemented by a five-year review mechanism to evaluate its efficacy in achieving its objectives. The complete legislative text is available for reference to provide transparency and accessibility to interested parties.
