                        BRING SUPPLY CHAINS HOME

  (Mr. MALINOWSKI asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. MALINOWSKI. Madam Speaker, from war in Europe to pandemic around 
the world to potential crisis in Asia, one of the lessons we are 
learning is that America should never be dependent on strategic 
adversaries like China or Russia for the goods most critical to our 
economic and national security.
  Whether it is PPE, pharmaceutical ingredients, microchips, or the 
advanced battery technologies that will power the future, we must bring 
our supply chains home.
  We can do this by enacting into law the bipartisan supply chain 
resiliency provisions in the America COMPETES Act.
  This section of the bill, which I helped write, makes one of the 
biggest investments to spur domestic manufacturing in our Nation's 
history. It has been endorsed by the National Association of 
Manufacturers, the United Steelworkers, the National Defense Industry 
Association, and more than 20 organizations, and the list is growing 
each day.
  I urge that any competitiveness bill that goes to the President for 
his signature include these important provisions in the America 
COMPETES Act.
