- Congress would require the Defense Department to send Congress a report on how the 2023 Chinese balloon surveillance affected U.S. national security.
- The report would be due within 90 days after the bill becomes law and would be written with input from the President.
- It must describe any impacts on U.S. military installations, like whether sites or operations were exposed.
- It must also review the technology and materials recovered from the balloon, including where those parts likely came from.
- Most of the report must be public, but it can include a classified section for sensitive details.
