Key points
Government agencies are prohibited from purchasing ground robots manufactured in specific foreign countries.
Existing foreign-made robotic systems must be phased out of government operations within one year.
Federal grants and contracts can no longer be used to acquire or maintain these foreign robotic technologies.
Limited exceptions exist for national security agencies, provided the robots are modified to prevent data leaks.
