Increased Transparency on Chinese Police Operations and Security Agreements in the US.

This bill mandates federal agencies, primarily the State Department and the FBI, to increase transparency regarding China's international security agreements and joint police initiatives. Crucially, it requires the FBI to immediately notify local law enforcement and the public if any unauthorized Chinese police stations are discovered operating within the United States. This ensures citizens and local authorities are quickly informed about potential foreign security threats.
Key points
The State Department must publish and regularly update a list of countries with security agreements or joint police initiatives with China.
If the FBI discovers a Chinese police station in the US, it must notify local law enforcement within 24 hours and the public via a bulletin within 72 hours.
