WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the House Foreign Affairs Committee passed out of markup H.R. 7037, the Developing Overseas Mineral Investments and New Allied Networks for Critical Energies (DOMINANCE) Act, a bipartisan bill led by House Foreign Affairs East Asia and Pacific Subcommittee Chairwoman Young Kim (CA-40) and Ranking Member Ami Bera (CA-06). This bill strengthens global critical minerals supply chains and secures America’s energy future with our allies.
Watch Rep. Kim speak in support of the bill in the markup HERE.
“Critical minerals are the foundation of America’s military power, industrial strength, and economic competitiveness. We cannot rely on China for the very materials that underpin our economic and national security,” said Chairwoman Kim. “My DOMINANCE Act helps lock in President Trump’s critical minerals strategy and counter the CCP’s decades-long chokehold on critical mineral supply chains. I’m proud to see this bill advance out of committee, so we can unleash the next generation of American energy dominance.”
“Critical minerals power everything from our defense industrial base to the advanced technologies that drive our economy, yet China continues to maintain an alarming chokehold over the global critical mineral supply chain,” said Representative Bera. “I’m proud to partner with Congresswoman Young Kim on this effort to align diplomatic and financing tools in cooperation with our allies and partners to build secure and resilient critical mineral supply chains that will support American competitiveness and strengthen our national security for decades to come.”
Specifically, the DOMINANCE Act advances U.S. energy and critical minerals leadership by:
