HR 1679 United States House · 119th Congress

Global Investment in American Jobs Act of 2025

The Global Investment in American Jobs Act of 2025 requires the Commerce Department to conduct a one-year review of U.S. policies for attracting foreign investment from "trusted" countries - defined as nations not deemed U.S. adversaries - focusing on how such investment impacts jobs, economic growth, and competitiveness. The review will examine barriers to investment (like data localization rules), trends in global investment, and challenges from state-backed entities (particularly Chinese state-owned enterprises), while seeking public input. It does not change existing laws but mandates a report to Congress with recommendations to improve the U.S. investment climate. The bill aims to inform future policies that could affect foreign investors, U.S. businesses, and national security approaches to foreign investment.
