Safeguarding Technology from CCP Influence Act

This bill would bar federal agencies from buying any computer or printer when the manufacturer, bidder, or offeror is a "covered Chinese entity." A covered Chinese entity is one that the Secretary of Defense, consulting with the Director of National Intelligence or the FBI Director, determines is owned, controlled, directed, subcontracted by, affiliated with, or otherwise connected to the government of the People's Republic of China. The President could waive the ban by certifying to Congress that the ban is contrary to U.S. national security. The rule would apply to contracts entered into, renewed, or extended after the bill becomes law.
