Securing Energy Critical Elements and American Jobs Act of 2019 This bill directs the Department of Energy (DOE) to implement a program to assure the long-term, secure, and sustainable supply of energy critical elements to satisfy the national security, economic well-being, and industrial production needs of the United States. Specifically, the bill promotes collaboration in the program to include opportunities for students and staff at institutions of higher education and international collaboration; requires DOE to develop and update a plan every two years for how it intends to carry out the program; and creates a Critical Materials Information Center to collect, catalogue, disseminate, and archive information that is generated by research and development activities under the program.
