Embassy Construction Integrity Act of 2025

The Embassy Construction Integrity Act of 2025 restricts the U.S. State Department from acquiring, leasing, or contracting with entities linked to the Chinese government for construction or maintenance of diplomatic or consular buildings abroad. It specifically prohibits transactions involving buildings where a "covered entity" (an entity controlled by China or its agents) performed construction since 1949 or holds ownership. If such a transaction occurs, the Secretary of State must notify Congress within 7 days, including a national security justification and mitigation plan. This law directly affects U.S. embassy and consulate construction projects, aiming to prevent reliance on Chinese-linked contractors for critical infrastructure.
