Contact Congress about S. 1357: SAFE Act

Chinese companies would have to reveal more ties to the Chinese government before listing on U.S. exchanges. They would also have to update that information each year.

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.

SAFE Act is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.

Latest action on S. 1357: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects Chinese companies that receive financial support from the Government of the People’s Republic of China and want access to U.S. stock exchanges. It also affects investors, stock exchanges, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and company leaders whose party or government ties would have to be reported.

Why this matters: This bill matters because investors may not always see how much support or influence the Chinese government has in a listed company. The bill would put more of that information into required filings before and after a company lists in the United States. It could help investors judge risk, but it could also make U.S. listings less attractive to some Chinese companies. The bill text alone does not show how large those effects would be.

Key provisions in S. 1357

  • U.S. stock exchanges would have to require extra reports from certain companies. The reports would be due before first listing and in each yearly report.
  • The bill applies to Chinese companies that get financial support from the Government of the People’s Republic of China.
  • Companies would have to report any Chinese government support. That includes subsidies, grants, loans, loan guarantees, tax breaks, buying-policy benefits, and other support.
  • Companies would have to explain any strings attached to that support. These could include export targets, required purchases from named groups, required use of certain intellectual property, or hiring Chinese Communist Party members or other government workers.
  • Companies would have to say whether they have Chinese Communist Party committees inside the business. If they do, they must name the employees on those committees and explain their roles.
