This bill would stop sensitive American technology and intellectual property from reaching China's military or being used for human rights abuses. It sets up export controls, sanctions violators, and creates a public list of Chinese products linked to state industrial policy.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Who this affects: This bill directly impacts U.S. companies, universities, and researchers who work with advanced technology and have ties to China. It also reaches foreign companies that handle U.S.-controlled technology in transactions involving China. Chinese individuals and entities that receive or use restricted technology would face sanctions.
Why this matters: Advanced technology is at the center of the competition between the U.S. and China. This bill attempts to keep sensitive American innovations out of China's military and surveillance programs. How it is implemented could reshape global supply chains, affect billions of dollars in trade, and change how companies and universities collaborate across borders.
