                           Motion to Recommit

  Mr. CICILLINE. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill?
  Mr. CICILLINE. I am opposed.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to 
recommit.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Mr. Cicilline moves to recommit the bill H.R. 761 to the 
     Committee on Natural Resources with instructions to report 
     the same back to the House forthwith with the following 
     amendment:
       At the end of title I (page 12, after line 2), add the 
     following new sections:

     SEC. 105. PROHIBITIONS REGARDING CHINA AND IRAN.

       (a) Prohibition on Export.--Each Federal mineral 
     exploration or mine permit issued pursuant to this Act shall 
     include provisions that prohibit export to China or Iran of 
     strategic and critical minerals produced under the permit.
       (b) Prohibition on Issuance of Permits.--No Federal mineral 
     exploration or mine permit may be issued pursuant to this Act 
     to any company in which China or Iran has an ownership 
     interest.
       (c) Presidential Waiver of Prohibitions With Respect to 
     China.--The President may waive the prohibitions under 
     subsections (a) and (b) with respect to China upon 
     certification that the Government of China has removed its 
     export restraints on strategic and critical minerals.

     SEC. 106. PROHIBITION ON ISSUANCE OF PERMITS TO PERSONS, 
                   CORPORATIONS, AND SUBSIDIARIES CONVICTED OF 
                   VIOLATING SANCTIONS LAWS.

       No Federal mineral exploration or mine permit shall be 
     issued pursuant to this Act to a person, corporation, 
     partnership, trust, or other form of business organization 
     that has been convicted of violating the Iran Sanctions Act 
     of 1996 (50 U.S.C. 1701 note), the Comprehensive Iran 
     Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010 (22 
     U.S.C. 8501 et seq.), the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria 
     Human Rights Act of 2012 (22 U.S.C. 8701 et seq.), or the 
     International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 
     et seq.).

  Mr. AMODEI (during the reading). Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent 
that we dispense with the reading of the motion.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Nevada?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Rhode Island is 
recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. CICILLINE. Mr. Speaker, this is the final amendment to the bill 
which

[[Page H5622]]

will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. If adopted, the 
bill will immediately proceed to final passage, as amended.
  Much of the debate today has properly focused on the importance of 
rare-earth elements to our national security and our economic 
competitiveness.
  Globally, the demand for mineral materials continues to grow. These 
resources are critical for a wide range of products that help ensure 
the long-term viability of our manufacturing sector, public health, and 
our defense capabilities.
  New technologies and emerging American industries rely on rare 
minerals. For example, a diverse set of less abundant heavy rare-earth 
elements are essential to the production of cell phone and laptop 
screens. Hybrid engines and advanced vehicle technologies similarly 
rely on these rare minerals. In addition, patients and health care 
professionals regularly use medical devices and equipment that require 
rare-earth elements during production.
  Finally, our defense capabilities for manufacturers of jet fighter 
engines to satellite and antimissile systems rely on a consistent 
supply of rare-earth minerals.
  This is an important subject for many business leaders and 
manufacturers in my home State of Rhode Island and all across our 
country. In order to plan for the future and to hire additional 
workers, businesses need to be certain that the supply chain for 
essential minerals remains consistent and predictable.
  So it should be clear that we all understand the strategic and 
economic importance of these minerals. Some of us disagree on how we 
should manage the extraction of these elements.
  I believe that thoughtful management of these natural resources, 
instead of undermining important environmental protections, would 
actually help ensure a supply chain that is sustainable in the long 
term.
  But this amendment addresses a different concern. Today, China has a 
near-monopoly in the global rare-earth element production market. 
According to recent estimates from the U.S. Geological Survey, China 
possesses 97.3 percent of the world's mine production and 55 percent of 
the world's rare-earth elements reserves.
  At the same time, in an attempt to manipulate the world market for 
minerals and raise prices, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has 
established strict export quotas and tariffs. Obviously, this has a 
real impact on the mineral supply chain for American manufacturers and 
businesses.
  China is not acting alone. Iran is also one of the largest mineral-
producing countries in the world. The director of the Persian Gulf 
Mining and Metal Industries Special Zone in southern Iran has said that 
China is their largest commercial partner. Recently, according to 
international reports, senior Chinese officials have engaged with Iran 
on various geological research projects as they look to expand this 
relationship. In other words, China is already stockpiling various 
minerals upon which American manufacturers and our defense capabilities 
rely, and they may even be working with Iran to gain a larger market 
share. This is a real threat to our national security; but it's also a 
real concern for local businesses and manufacturers, technology 
companies, and defense contractors who rely on rare-earth elements 
every day.
  Despite these concerns, the underlying bill fails to protect these 
strategic and critical minerals from exposure to foreign influence or 
control. That's why I rise today offering an amendment to ensure that 
minerals produced under this act do not become available to China, 
Iran, or any entity that has violated existing sanctions laws. 
Specifically, the amendment would ensure mine permits issued pursuant 
to this act include provisions prohibiting the export of the strategic 
and critical materials produced under the permit to China or Iran.
  The amendment also prohibits issuance of permits to any company in 
which China or Iran has an ownership interest.
  Finally, the amendment prohibits issuance of permits to any entity 
that has been convicted of violating the Iran Sanctions Act and related 
laws.
  In the end, the amendment accomplishes three important goals. First, 
it guarantees that our own domestic resources aren't used to promote or 
increase Iranian or Chinese business interests at the expense of the 
American taxpayer. Second, it makes sure we continue pressuring Iran 
with economic sanctions in a sector critical to their local economy. 
This is a vital bipartisan national security interest. And, third, it 
provides more certainty for domestic manufacturers by ensuring that 
American minerals stay here and help make our domestic supply chain 
more predictable.
  I urge my colleagues to support this simple amendment and to protect 
our country.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. AMODEI. Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to 
recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Nevada is recognized for 
5 minutes.
  Mr. AMODEI. Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague from Rhode 
Island for the eloquent description of what the underlying bill does. I 
tend to agree with his description on how critical this legislation is.
  I am surprised at the tone, though, when we already have multiple 
rules, regulations, statutes on the books that talk about import and 
export.
  I am surprised at the tone when we talk about the danger of producing 
these materials in this country when right now we're not producing many 
of them, and we are entirely reliant upon those with whom we compete 
globally and militarily to attain these.
  I would suggest to you that while well-intentioned, that this matter 
is, in fact, already taken care of under existing law; but let's not 
forget the underlying purpose of the bill. It's about jobs.
  You want to talk about the middle class? You want to talk about the 
economy? You want to talk about the western half of this country where 
over 40 percent of many of those States are owned by the Federal 
Government, where people who are elected by nobody within the State are 
making decisions about permitting? You want to talk about permitting 
times and how long it takes to do that? By the way, did you hear that 
if it isn't grown, it has to be mined?
  The purpose of this bill is to put people to work and put us back in 
control of supplying those minerals for the building industries, the 
communications industries, the manufacturing industries, all of that. 
By the way, not that anybody wants to trade with any of the folks 
mentioned in here specifically and you have the whole executive branch 
to take care of that, but there is that thing called ``balance of 
trade,'' which is something we could use some help with.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge your vote against the motion to recommit.
  I yield back the balance of my time.

                              {time}  1730
