Senate Energy and Natural Resources Chairwoman Lisa Murkowski reintroduced her bill yesterday to boost extraction of certain minerals deemed vital to national security.
The Alaska Republican’s “American Mineral Security Act” aims to streamline the federal permitting process for so-called critical minerals. It also seeks to strengthen the overall mineral supply chain and workforce.
