Reshoring American Manufacturing Act of 2026
To require the Administrator of the Small Business Administration to maintain a website for small business concerns relating to onshoring manufacturing capacity, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB9718, proposes to mandate the Small Business Administration (SBA) to create and maintain a website specifically for small businesses. This website would provide information and resources related to onshoring manufacturing capacity, which means bringing manufacturing back to the home country. The goal is to help small businesses understand and take advantage of opportunities in domestic manufacturing.
The bill would primarily affect small businesses, providing them with a centralized resource to access information about onshoring manufacturing. This could include details on government incentives, support programs, and best practices for transitioning to domestic production. By offering this support, the bill aims to bolster the role of small businesses in the U.S. manufacturing sector.
HB9718 was introduced on July 15, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on Small Business. As of the last update, it is in the initial stages of the legislative process. Moving forward, the committee will review the bill, potentially hold hearings, and decide whether to advance it for further consideration.
