Protecting Military Bases from Connected Vehicles of Concern Act of 2024

This bill prohibits the operation of "connected vehicles" (like cars with GPS, remote access, or wireless updates) designed or made by foreign-owned entities deemed a national security risk on U.S. military bases and other Department of Defense property. The Secretary of Defense must create and annually update a list of such vehicles based on specific security risks, including threats to critical infrastructure or U.S. security. It directly affects military installations by banning these vehicles, while defining "connected vehicles" broadly to include modern tech features. The law requires annual review of the prohibited list to ensure it reflects current security assessments.
