HR 6228 United States House · 118th Congress

To require the Secretary of Transportation and the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection to develop an alternative platform to LOGINK, and for other purposes.

This bill requires the Transportation Secretary and Customs Commissioner to develop a secure alternative to LOGINK, a Chinese-managed logistics network. It directs them to create a platform with tamper-proof architecture that cannot be manipulated by foreign adversaries, working with international partners like the EU and International Maritime Organization. The bill also mandates a report to Congress within 180 days detailing national security threats from LOGINK and steps to protect U.S. logistics infrastructure. It aims to safeguard U.S. and allied economic security by establishing new standards for global logistics networks. The direct effect is on U.S. ports, supply chains, and international trade operations reliant on logistics data.
