This bill prohibits the operation of certain connected vehicles on Department of Defense property and military installations starting January 1, 2028. The vehicles targeted are those designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied by foreign entities of concern—specifically those posing risks to national security, critical infrastructure, or U.S. cybersecurity. By January 1, 2027, the Secretary of Defense must create and publicly post a list of prohibited vehicles, incorporating existing federal rules and consulting with relevant agencies, with annual reviews and explanations for any vehicle removals. The bill also requires the Secretary to submit an implementation plan to Congress by June 1, 2027, detailing how the Defense Department will identify these vehicles, ensure compliance across military installations, and assess the resources needed for the prohibition. No specific funding is appropriated in the bill; implementation costs and resource requirements are to be assessed in the implementation plan.
