                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of Congress relating to the increased importance 
  of the United States steel industry since the attacks on the United 
                     States on September 11, 2001.

Whereas on September 11, 2001, acts of treacherous violence were committed 
        against the United States and its citizens;
Whereas the United States steel industry has been weakened by the availability 
        of illegal increased quantities of steel being imported into the United 
        States by foreign businesses; and
Whereas in this time of crisis it is important that the United States does not 
        rely on steel imported from foreign countries: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That, in light of the attacks on the United States on September 11, 
2001, it is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States steel industry is vital to the 
        national security interests of the United States; and
            (2) the United States should place a priority on using 
        steel produced in the United States in order to help rebuild 
        our Nation and support any future military efforts in response 
        to such attacks.
