While the bill has support from both parties, most bills that only ask for reports do not make it all the way through the long lawmaking process.

Key Points

  • This bill asks the top intelligence official in the country to study how the Chinese government is trying to influence other nations. It focuses on activities happening outside the United States in places like Europe, Africa, and Latin America.
  • The study will look at how these actions affect America's friendships with other countries and how people around the world view the United States. It will also check if these activities are hurting global or local financial systems.
  • The goal is to understand how these actions might threaten the safety and interests of the United States and its allies. Intelligence officials would have to share their findings with Congress within six months.
  • Most of the report will be available to the public, though some secret details may be kept in a private version for lawmakers. This helps regular people understand the challenges the country faces abroad.
