§6067 — Title 20 Education | U.S. Code

Summary

Congress says federal money under this chapter should not be spent by any group unless the group agrees to follow chapter 83 of title 41. When the funds can be used to buy equipment or products, recipients should buy only items made in the United States. Each federal agency head should give every recipient a notice that explains these points. If a court or federal agency finally finds someone knowingly labeled a product "Made in America" (or similar) when it was not made in the U.S., that person should be barred from getting any contract or subcontract paid with these funds, under the debarment and suspension rules in 48 C.F.R. §§ 9.400–9.409 as they existed on March 31, 1994.
