Summary
Uranium Classification Act of 2019
This bill directs the Department of the Interior to remove uranium from the critical minerals list. (A "critical mineral" is a nonfuel mineral or mineral material that is essential to economic and national security, from a supply chain that is vulnerable to disruption, and that serves an essential function in the manufacturing of a product, the absence of which would have significant consequences for the U.S. economy or national security.)
