Science and Technology Agreement Enhanced Congressional Notification Act of 2024

HR 5245 requires the Secretary of State to provide detailed notifications to Congress before entering, renewing, or extending any science and technology agreement with China. The notification must include the full agreement text, national security justification, risk assessments (including technology transfer concerns), human rights considerations, and monitoring plans, and must be submitted 30 days before any agreement takes effect. Existing agreements with China must be revoked unless the Secretary submits the required notification within 60 days of the bill's enactment. This bill directly affects the Department of State's ability to negotiate such agreements and gives Congress enhanced oversight authority. It applies to all future agreements and existing ones in effect when the law takes effect.
