To require the Secretary of Energy to establish a centralized resource for access to data to facilitate biological research through enabling advanced computational methods such as artificial intelligence, and for other purposes.
Summary
HR9307, introduced June 11, 2026, directs the Secretary of Energy to build a centralized data resource for biological research using AI and advanced computing. The bill is in early stages (referred to committee) with no specified funding amount. Near-term market impact is limited given legislative uncertainty.

Key Takeaways
- 1.HR9307 is an early-stage authorization bill with no funding amount; no market-moving impact today.
- 2.Direct beneficiaries would be AI and cloud infrastructure providers (NVDA, MSFT, GOOGL) and genomics data firms (ILMN), but impact is speculative.
- 3.Investors should track committee activity and potential appropriations for real market signals.
Market Implications
Near-term, the bill does not change any company's revenue trajectory. For $NVDA, , and , the impact is negligible given their scale. For $ILMN, any government-funded sequencing boost would take years. Long-term, if the bill leads to a large-scale federal biological data hub, cloud providers could see incremental demand, but this is contingent on subsequent appropriations and the bill's passage through multiple legislative hurdles.
Full Analysis
What happened: On June 11, 2026, Representative Matt Van Epps (R-TN) introduced HR9307 in the House. The bill was referred to the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. It requires the Secretary of Energy to establish a centralized resource for access to data to facilitate biological research through enabling advanced computational methods such as artificial intelligence. The bill has one cosponsor and has taken only three actions: introduction and referral on the same day.
Money trail: The bill does not specify an authorization amount. It is an authorization bill (directs the Secretary to establish a resource) but without dollar amounts. Actual funding would require a separate appropriations bill. As such, no immediate federal spending is guaranteed.
Structural winners and losers: The primary beneficiaries are companies providing AI compute infrastructure and cloud services for data-heavy research. NVIDIA ($NVDA), Microsoft, and Alphabet are positioned to supply hardware and cloud platforms. Illumina ($ILMN) could see increased demand for sequencing and bioinformatics tools if the data resource prompts more biological data generation. However, due to the early legislative stage and lack of funding, any revenue impact is uncertain and likely small relative to these companies' overall revenues.
Competitive landscape: If the bill progresses, it could stimulate public-private partnerships. Smaller AI and life sciences analytics firms could also benefit, but they are not yet identifiable as primary beneficiaries. The bill does not create new regulatory burdens or penalties; it is a facilitative infrastructure effort.
Timeline: The bill is at step zero: referred to committee. It must pass committee markup, House floor vote, Senate introduction/committee/floor, and presidential signature. Without a companion bill in the Senate or strong committee leadership sponsorship, passage is uncertain. Monitor committee hearings and markup for momentum.

Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 101 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as Amended, on Recoverable Critical Minerals and Materials
This memorandum invokes the Defense Production Act (DPA) Section 101 to declare that recoverable critical minerals and materials (such as black mass, end-of-life rare-earth magnets, and scrap) are essential to national defense and that the U.S. cannot meet defense needs without disrupting civilian markets. It directs the Secretary of Commerce to issue regulations and take actions—including priority contracts and supply-chain interventions—to rapidly expand domestic recovery and processing of these materials, while explicitly excluding copper scrap already covered by a separate proclamation.
Securing America’s Defense Supply Chains and Ensuring Domestic Acquisition of Critical Materials
This executive order restricts waivers for foreign-sourced critical materials in defense contracts, effective January 1, 2027, and mandates that defense contractors map their supply chains from raw materials to end products, vet subcontractors for risks, and prohibit covered materials from unreliable foreign suppliers. It directs the Secretary of War to enforce strict compliance, including requiring mitigation plans for any non-compliant materials and establishing penalties for fraud or willful noncompliance.
Regulatory Relief for Certain Stationary Sources to Promote American Chemical Manufacturing Security
President Trump issued a proclamation exempting certain chemical manufacturing facilities from compliance with the EPA's HON Rule for two years, citing unavailability of required technology and national security concerns. The exemption delays emissions-control deadlines and maintains pre-HON Rule standards for listed stationary sources, invoking authority under Clean Air Act section 112(i)(4).
