Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would bar people and organizations that receive federal research grants, contracts, or similar awards from using that money to collaborate with entities on U.S. government restricted lists, or with individuals tied to those entities. Collaboration includes joint projects, co-writing publications, sharing data or materials, joint labs, and exchanging personnel or students. The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy would issue government-wide guidance on compliance and enforcement. A federal agency head could grant case-by-case waivers for national security, scientific, or public health reasons, and would have to notify Congress within 30 days of each waiver.
