Bill Analysis

The DETERRENT Act (HR 5933) is a legislative proposal aimed at enhancing U.S. national security by addressing threats posed by foreign adversaries, particularly in the realm of technology and economic competition. The bill seeks to establish a comprehensive framework for deterring hostile actions from countries such as China and Russia, focusing on safeguarding critical infrastructure, technology, and supply chains.

Key provisions of the DETERRENT Act include the establishment of a new interagency task force to assess and respond to emerging threats in technology sectors, including telecommunications, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. The task force will be responsible for coordinating efforts across federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Department of Commerce, to develop strategies that mitigate risks associated with foreign investments and technology transfers.

The bill authorizes funding for research and development initiatives aimed at bolstering U.S. technological capabilities and enhancing resilience against foreign interference. It also includes provisions for grants and incentives to support domestic industries in critical sectors, thereby fostering innovation and reducing dependency on foreign supply chains.

Beneficiaries of the DETERRENT Act include U.S. technology companies, defense contractors, and critical infrastructure operators, who will gain access to resources and support for enhancing their security measures. Additionally, the act aims to protect consumers and the broader economy from potential disruptions caused by foreign adversaries.

Key timelines include the establishment of the interagency task force within 90 days of enactment, with ongoing assessments and reports to Congress on the effectiveness of the strategies implemented. The act emphasizes a proactive approach to national security, aiming to deter adversarial actions before they occur, thereby reinforcing U.S. global competitiveness and security.

As of the latest action, the bill has been received in the Senate for further consideration.
