This bill would prohibit the Chinese government and businesses in which China owns at least 25 percent of equity interests from purchasing real estate located next to federal lands in the United States. The legislation targets property adjacent to lands managed by the Department of Interior, Department of Defense, and Forest Service, as well as Indian country lands. The bill directs the President to take necessary actions to enforce this prohibition, though it does not specify an implementation timeline or dedicated funding for enforcement. The measure reflects congressional concerns about Chinese acquisition of property near sensitive federal and military areas. The bill was introduced in June 2024 with broad bipartisan sponsorship but does not appear to have advanced beyond committee referral.
