The "Keep Innovation in America Act" is a federal bill aimed at enhancing the competitiveness and innovation of American businesses by restricting the outsourcing of jobs related to federally funded research and development projects. The main provisions of the bill include prohibiting federal agencies from awarding contracts or grants to entities that plan to perform work outside the United States if it could have been performed domestically. This legislation aims to protect American jobs, promote domestic innovation, and ensure that taxpayer-funded projects benefit the U.S. economy. If enacted, the bill could lead to increased job opportunities for American workers in industries supported by federal R&D funding.
