Palmer | P000609 | palmer.house.gov | palmer | https://palmer.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the House Energy and Commerce Committee passed H.R. 9617, the Coordinating and Harnessing America’s Recovery of Minerals (CHARM) Act, during a full committee markup. This bipartisan legislation was introduced by Representatives Gary Palmer (R-AL-06) and Paul Tonko (D-NY-20), the Democratic Ranking Member on the Environment Subcommittee. Following committee passage, Rep. Palmer released the following statement: "Critical minerals are essential to our economy and national security, yet America remains too dependent on China for these resources,” said Rep. Palmer. “The CHARM Act takes a commonsense approach by directing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to develop a coordinated federal strategy to identify new opportunities to recover critical minerals from electronic waste, legacy mine sites, coal ash, and other overlooked sources already here at home. I appreciate Congressman Tonko's partnership and thank my colleagues on the Energy and Commerce Committee for advancing this legislation."
