What this amendment would do

SA 6167, submitted by Ms. Warren, aims to add a requirement for the Secretary of the Treasury to provide a report to the appropriate congressional committees.

The purpose of this amendment is to have the Secretary of the Treasury assess whether specific technology categories should be added to the lists of notifiable and prohibited technologies under section 809 of the Defense Production Act of 1950.

The technologies listed for assessment are:

  • Advanced energy storage technologies.
  • Robotics.
  • Biotechnology.

The report must be submitted within 120 days after the Act is enacted and must include an assessment for each category regarding:

  • How the technology enables the cyber-enabled, surveillance, intelligence, or military capabilities of a country of concern.
  • If it is feasible to define technical parameters for the category or its subsets.
  • If the technology is already covered by specific paragraphs of section 809 of the Defense Production Act of 1950.
