Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Armed Services, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill requires the federal government to review whether communications equipment and services from seven specific Chinese companies and their subsidiaries pose a national security threat to the United States. The named entities include DeepSeek, Unitree Robotics, DEEP Robotics, BrainCo, Manycore Tech, and Game Science Interactive, along with any of their subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, or licensees. National security agencies have one year from the bill's enactment to complete their review and determine if these products present an unacceptable risk. If agencies fail to make a determination within that year, or if they determine the equipment and services are a threat, the Federal Communications Commission must automatically add them to the "covered list" of prohibited communications equipment within 30 days, effectively banning their use in the United States. The Secretary of Defense is also required to evaluate whether any of these entities should be designated as Chinese military companies operating in the United States as part of an existing annual review process.
