AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Defense to suspend or revoke the security clearance of any retired or separated military member or former Defense Department civilian employee who lobbies for certain Chinese companies. The covered companies are those that appear both on the Defense Department's list of Chinese military companies and on the Treasury Department's Non-SDN Chinese Military-Industrial Complex Companies List. The Secretary could waive this rule for an individual for up to 180 days at a time by certifying to the congressional defense committees that the waiver is in the national security interest of the United States.
