What it does

The bill would expand the existing ban on foreign national contributions and expenditures in U.S. elections to include domestic business entities that are foreign-controlled, foreign-influenced, or foreign-owned, based on thresholds of foreign ownership or control. It requires such entities to certify compliance before making election-related spending, prohibits recipients from using funds without proper certification, and clarifies that the ban applies to state and local ballot initiatives and Super PACs. The measure defines "business entity" broadly and sets an effective date 180 days after enactment, regardless of Federal Election Commission rulemaking.
