註釋In order to protect the U.S. industrial base during periods of adversity and war, Congress passed domestic source restrictions as part of the 1941 DoD Appropriations Act. These provisions later became known as the Berry Amendment (BA). The current BA Requirement to Buy Certain Articles from American Sources contains a number of domestic source restrictions that prohibit DoD from acquiring food, clothing, fabrics (including ballistic fibers), stainless steel, and hand or measuring tools that are not grown or produced in the U.S. It also excludes specialty metals. This report examines the original intent and purpose of the BA and legislative proposals to amend the application of domestic source restrictions. This is a print on demand report.
