S 2525 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Stop Funding Our Adversaries Act of 2023

This bill prohibits federal agencies from providing any funding - such as grants, contracts, or cooperative agreements - for research conducted in China by the Chinese government, the Chinese Communist Party, or entities they control. It directly affects researchers, universities, and institutions receiving federal funding who might collaborate with Chinese entities. The law bans all federal support for such research, covering every federal agency listed (including the NSF, NIH, and Department of Defense) and applying to all funding tiers. This is a direct policy change restricting U.S. financial support for specific research activities in China.
