    (a) In General.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, 
beginning on the date on which the Comptroller General issues the 
report under section 2(a), funds or credit assistance made available 
under a deficient program may not be used for a project commencing 
after that date for the construction, alteration, maintenance, repair, 
rehabilitation, conversion, or extension of infrastructure or 
acquisition of equipment and vehicles relating to an infrastructure 
project unless all of the iron, steel, manufactured goods, and 
commodity construction materials used in the project are produced in 
the United States.
    (b) Exception.--Subsection (a) shall not apply in any case in which 
the head of the Federal department or agency involved finds that--
            (1) applying subsection (a) would be inconsistent with the

            (2) iron, steel, the relevant manufactured goods, and the 
        relevant commodity construction materials are not produced in 
        the United States in sufficient and reasonably available 
        quantities and of a satisfactory quality; or
            (3) inclusion of iron, steel, manufactured goods, and

        percent.
    (c) Written Justification.--If the head of the Federal department

SEC. 4. RULEMAKING.

    Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, 
the Secretary of Transportation shall issue regulations for purposes of 
this Act that define the term ``all manufacturing processes'' for 
manufactured products and commodity construction materials that are 
used in public works and infrastructure projects.

Summary: This bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to publish a report that identifies all federal assistance programs for public works and infrastructure administered by the federal government. For each such program, GAO shall: (1) identify whether a domestic content preference requirement applies and, if so, provide preference details. And (2) describe the type of infrastructure projects receiving funding, the number of entities that are participating, and the amount of federal funds that are made available for each fiscal year. No funds or credit assistance made available under any such program for which a domestic content preference requirement does not apply may be used for a project commencing after the GAO issues such report for the construction, alteration, maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, conversion, or extension of infrastructure or the acquisition of related equipment and vehicles unless all of the iron, steel, manufactured goods, and commodity construction materials used in the project are produced in the United States. Such prohibition shall not apply if the agency involved finds that: applying it would be inconsistent with the public interest. Iron, steel, the relevant manufactured goods, and the relevant commodity construction materials are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities and of a satisfactory quality. Or inclusion of such US-produced materials will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25.
