What this bill would do

The Streamlining American Manufacturing Strategy Act amends the National Institute of Standards and Technology Act. It changes how often the strategic plan for the Manufacturing USA Program is updated. Specifically, it moves the update frequency to at least once every 4 years. This change is intended to align the program's planning cycle with the National Strategy for Advanced Manufacturing. The goal is to ensure the program reflects national strategy priorities.
