Markup of Twelve Pieces of Legislation

1 septembre 2026

House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing, and Trade Chambre des représentants

21:22 - 24:26
Intervenant 1
Good morning, everyone.  And thank you for being here today.  Today's markup brings together a dozen bills that reflect two of this committee's priorities: protecting American consumers and strengthening America's competitiveness.  I'm proud of the bipartisan work that has gone into these important initiatives.  American consumers deserve better protections in the marketplace, and these bills go a long way towards earning back consumers' trust. 

The Strategic Task Force on Scam Prevention Act is necessary to ensure that relevant federal agencies coordinate their efforts to identify emerging scams and develop strategies to prevent Americans from becoming victims in the first place.  The Main Event Ticketing Act builds on our prior work by cracking down on the bots and bad actors that have made buying a concert ticket feel like a rigged game, really.  And when it comes to what's actually in the products families buy and what claims companies make about them, the PAC Act and the Recycled Materials Attribution Act bring much-needed transparency to recycling claims.  In addition to advancing proposals that protect consumers, we are also pushing back against the Chinese Communist Party.  The CHIP EQUIP Act ensures that companies receiving CHIPS Act funding aren't turning around and buying manufacturing equipment from firms owned or controlled by the Chinese government. 

The Memory Chip Competitiveness Assessment Act and the American Quantum Competitive Act direct the Commerce Department to get serious about where our supply chains are vulnerable and how we outcompete China in the technologies that matter most.  Finally, the Automotive National and Economic Security Act shines a light on how deeply our auto industry's relationship with foreign adversaries go.  I look forward to moving these bills to the full committee and then to the House floor.  I want to thank you all and I want to thank all my colleagues on both sides of the aisle who have worked diligently and I want to thank the staff as well to protect consumers and bolster American competitiveness.  So I'll yield back and I'm going to recognize, yes, yes, I'm going to recognize Chairman Guthrie for his opening statement.

Intervenant 6
Thank you, Mr. Chairman, thank you for the recognition and good morning, thank everybody for being here.  American businesses and workers have built some of the world's most important industries and our economy and communities have benefited tremendously from that leadership.  Maintaining America's edge requires an ongoing commitment to innovation, resilient supply chains, and a marketplace where American businesses can compete on the world stage.  That is why I am pleased we are advancing legislation that will help the United States at the forefront of these critical sectors.  Two bills today focused on recycling take a practical approach to strengthen domestic manufacturing and support American businesses, provide much needed clarity to consumers about the products they buy every day, and establishing clearer standards for recycling claims so we can better support the development of new innovative technologies.
