There were a lot of bad things that happened in 2021. But hey, one positive was that several states passed or strengthened Buy America laws!
Texas lawmakers, for example, approved a bill to expand Buy America so it applies at public colleges and universities. New Jersey also strengthened its Buy America guidelines, ensuring that when the Garden State spends money on certain construction projects, that money is spent on Made in America products — down to the nuts and bolts. New York expanded its Buy America rule to apply to certain state-funded energy projects.
