Critical Infrastructure Manufacturing Feasibility Act
This bill requires the Department of Commerce to study and report on products that are in high demand across the critical infrastructure sectors.

The study must (1) identify the products in high demand across those sectors that are being imported due to manufacturing, material, or supply chain constraints; and (2) analyze the costs, benefits, and feasibility of manufacturing those products in the United States.
