New Federal Center to Stop Illegal Export of Sensitive US Technology.

This law establishes the Export Enforcement Coordination Center within the Department of Homeland Security to improve how federal agencies work together to stop illegal exports. The Center will focus specifically on preventing sensitive US technologies, like semiconductors and AI capabilities, from being unlawfully diverted to countries such as China and Russia. This coordination aims to strengthen national security and protect American technological innovation.
Key points
Creation of a new interagency center to coordinate all federal efforts in enforcing export control laws.
Primary focus is on preventing the illegal diversion of sensitive technologies (AI, semiconductors, quantum) to adversarial nations (China, Russia, Iran, North Korea).
The Center will share timely, actionable information with private companies about export risks to help them comply with the law.
