AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require buyers from countries of concern, such as China, to file with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) before acquiring U.S. general aviation companies. It would presume such deals are prohibited unless the buyer shows, by clear and convincing evidence, that the deal poses no national security risk. It would extend CFIUS review to general aviation airports and facilities near military bases and require Treasury notice or approval for U.S. investments in aviation companies in countries of concern. It would bar federal loans, grants, and contracts to aviation companies with certain foreign adversary ownership or income ties and require foreign ownership disclosures. It would also order reviews of past acquisitions, export controls on aviation technologies, and FAA security audits of systems made by foreign adversary-controlled companies.
