Biomanufacturing and Jobs Act of 2025

The Biomanufacturing and Jobs Act of 2025 aims to strengthen the U.S. biobased products industry by increasing federal procurement of products made from renewable agricultural resources like corn and soybeans. The bill establishes clear definitions for terms such as "biobased product" and "bio-attributed plastic," requires federal agencies to annually increase their purchase of biobased products, and creates a USDA task force to coordinate programs and make recommendations for improvement. It also sets labeling standards to prevent misleading claims about bioproducts and mandates training for federal procurement staff on biobased product purchasing. This legislation directly affects the Department of Agriculture, federal procurement agencies, and manufacturers of biobased products, with the goal of supporting rural economies and reducing reliance on petroleum-based products.
