Advancing Quantum Manufacturing Act of 2025

Key Points

• This bill, introduced by Senators Blackburn and Peters, aims to make the United States a leader in quantum technology. It creates a new 'Manufacturing USA Institute' focused specifically on building quantum computers, sensors, and communication tools right here in America.
• To save taxpayer money and speed up progress, the bill requires the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation to work more closely together. A new official will be hired to act as a bridge between these agencies to make sure they aren't accidentally doing the same work twice.
• The plan focuses on creating a resilient supply chain, meaning the U.S. would not have to rely on unfriendly countries for the high-tech parts needed for quantum systems. It also includes programs to train American workers for new, high-paying jobs in quantum engineering and advanced manufacturing.
• The bill covers many types of futuristic tech, from super-fast computers to ultra-sensitive sensors. It also orders independent studies to check if current government programs are actually meeting their goals and to find ways to help universities and private companies work together better.
