The Connected Vehicle Security Act prevents Americans\u2019 data from being collected on American roads and sent back to Beijing by cutting off the supply of vehicles, software, and critical hardware originating from China or Chinese companies at every point in the chain, from the manufacturing process, to import, to sale.\n\n\u201cChinese-made connected vehicles are a surveillance threat to our families, an economic threat to our workers, and a security threat to our whole country,\u201d said Senator Baldwin. \u201cWe need to act fast before it\u2019s too late \u2013 and I\u2019m glad to be teaming up with Democrats and Republicans to make sure China can\u2019t track and collect data on our communities and undercut American workers.\u201d\n\nSpecifically, the Connected Vehicle Security Act:\n\nBans foreign adversary vehicles by prohibiting the importation, manufacture, sale, and resale of connected vehicles, software, and hardware linked to China or other foreign adversaries, including those from joint ventures or entities under their control;\n\nEmpowers the Department of Commerce to identify and block high-risk vehicle technologies, components, and transactions that threaten U.S. economic or national security;\n\nEstablishes enforcement mechanisms to ensure prohibited technologies are kept out of the U.S. market; and\n\nPhases implementation with vehicle and software restrictions taking effect in 2027, and hardware restrictions in 2030, giving the U.S. industry time to secure a domestic supply, in line with the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) Connected Vehicles rule.\n\nThe bill is led by Senators Bernie Moreno (R-OH) and Elissa Slotkin (D-MI).\n\nA one-pager on this bill is available here. Full text of this legislation is available here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-06-11T06:38:38Z", "2026-06-11T06:41:07Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.baldwin.senate.gov/news/press-releases/baldwin-backs-bipartisan-bill-to-ban-chinese-vehicles-protect-american-workers-and-boost-national-security"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.609053298830986, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
