Dye Free Procurement Act

# Dye Free Procurement Act Summary **What the Bill Does:** The Dye Free Procurement Act would require the federal government to purchase products without synthetic dyes when making purchases for government use. This means federal agencies would need to source items like uniforms, equipment, textiles, and other goods in undyed or naturally dyed versions instead of synthetic dye-colored products. **Who It Affects:** The bill would directly impact federal purchasing departments and the contractors who supply goods to the government. It could also influence manufacturers and suppliers in relevant industries, potentially creating demand for dye-free product alternatives. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives.

The bill was introduced by Representative Michael Lawler (R-NY) in the 119th Congress. *Note: The bill's specific rationale and detailed provisions are not fully detailed in the available information. To understand the reasoning behind this proposal, you would need to review the full bill text.*.
