Asset Freezing: Individuals and companies found guilty of stealing US intellectual property will have all their assets and financial transactions in the United States blocked.
Travel Ban: Sanctioned individuals, including high-ranking Chinese officials and their families, will be ineligible for US visas and entry.
Protecting Innovation: The law aims to shield US companies and inventors from unfair competition and the loss of value of their technology, supporting the US economy.
