Aims to bolster domestic mineral production by expediting permits, prioritizing mineral-rich federal lands, and reducing regulatory barriers to strengthen national security and economic stability.

This memorandum directs the U.S. government to use all necessary legal instruments, including the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), to restrict PRC-affiliated persons from investing in U.S. technology, critical infrastructure, healthcare, agriculture, energy, raw materials, or other strategic sectors.  Agencies are directed to create an expedited “fast-track” process to facilitate greater investment from specified allied and partner sources in U.S. businesses involved with U.S. advanced technology and other important areas.  It requires expedited environmental reviews for any investment over $1 billion in the United States.  Additionally, the memorandum directs mitigation agreements to consist of concrete actions that companies can complete within a specific time, rather than perpetual and expensive compliance obligations.  It also states that more resources will be directed at facilitating investments from key partner countries.
