Plain-English Summary

This bill would likely require or incentivize the federal government and companies receiving federal contracts or tax benefits to purchase cotton grown in the United States rather than imported cotton. The measure would affect textile manufacturers, clothing companies, and federal agencies that buy cotton products, potentially increasing costs for these buyers but supporting American cotton farmers and domestic textile producers.
