SB6298 mandates that iron, steel, aluminum, and manufactured products used in public works projects in Washington must be made in the United States.

SB6298 amends Washington's Revised Code to require that iron, steel, aluminum, and manufactured products used in public works projects must be made in the United States. This applies to contracts exceeding $500,000 in state funds or financed through a financing contract. The director of the office of financial management may waive this requirement if it is inconsistent with the public interest, if domestic products are not available in sufficient quantities or quality, or if using domestic products would increase project costs.
