Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the State Department's Assistant Secretary for Intelligence and Research, working with the Commerce Department and the Director of National Intelligence, to send Congress a report within 360 days on U.S. export controls on semiconductors and chipmaking equipment going to China. The report would list each control and analyze its effects on China's military, chip industry, and artificial intelligence abilities, as well as on U.S. companies' revenue and market share. It would also identify which controls have worked or failed and give recommendations for improving them. The report would be unclassified and posted on the Department's website, with an optional classified annex.
