Minnesota SF5115 requires materials used in state-funded projects to be made in the United States.
Minnesota SF5115 mandates that cement, concrete, and steel used in state-funded infrastructure, transportation, housing, school, or public facility projects must be made in the United States. A project qualifies if less than five percent of the total cost of these materials is from non-U.S. sources. Agencies can grant waivers if no U.S.-made materials are available, if U.S.-made materials would increase project costs by more than 25 percent, or if an emergency requires immediate procurement. The commissioner must provide guidance on these requirements and waivers.
