Prohibiting Government Contracts with Beijing Winter Olympics Affiliated Businesses

This act aims to prevent the U.S. government from entering into contracts with companies that have business operations with the Beijing Organising Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games or the International Olympic Committee. This means such companies will be barred from selling their products or services to government agencies, unless deemed vital for national security. The goal is to exert pressure on entities associated with the Beijing games.
Key points
The U.S. government cannot enter into contracts or purchase products from companies with business ties to the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics organizers or the International Olympic Committee.
This prohibition applies to both civilian and defense contracts, with exceptions for national security interests.
Companies have 30 days from the act's enactment to terminate such business operations to avoid the ban.
These provisions will terminate if the 2022 Games are not held in China or by September 30, 2025, at the latest.
