What it does

The bill would prohibit the intelligence community from using funds for research, development, or technical support at any National Laboratory that allows covered assignees or visitors from designated "countries of risk" to access its premises, information, or technology. It affects National Laboratories receiving intelligence community funding and aims to prevent foreign intelligence collection by restricting access from high-risk countries. A waiver is permitted if the intelligence community head certifies the activity is not at risk of foreign collection and provides justification to congressional intelligence committees.
