trade in U.S. energy minerals and associated goods and services, both 
in the short- and long-term;
    (e) Assessing diplomatic policies and practices of foreign 
governments that impact U.S. energy minerals and associated goods and 
services;
    (f) Design of U.S. government policies and programs that support 
the development of new markets for U.S. energy minerals and associated 
goods and services in countries with high potential but that currently 
lack effective policy and market mechanisms necessary to create demand 
for energy minerals and associated goods and services; and
    (g) Responsible sourcing of energy minerals and preventing supply 
chain vulnerabilities and bottlenecks.
    Other information: It is anticipated that the Commission will meet 
at least once per year and at such other times and places as are

State affirms that the advisory committee is necessary and in the 
public interest.
