Plain-language change summary

The amended bill now includes a new line indicating that it was passed by the Senate on November 4, 2025. In the amendments, the previous short title and the section detailing a study on critical infrastructure manufacturing in the United States have been entirely removed. This change means that the bill no longer outlines the specific study that was originally intended, potentially altering the focus of the legislation.
