HR 5180 United States House · 119th Congress

To amend the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000 to modify and extend the annual report on military and security developments involving the People's Republic of China.

HR 5180 amends a required annual report on China's military and security activities, directly affecting the Department of Defense which produces the report. It adds specific new requirements, including reporting on nuclear/drones cooperation, Chinese overseas farmland acquisitions, cyber capabilities in potential U.S. conflicts, biotechnology development, and China's strategic plans for Taiwan (including cyber warfare, invasion, or blockade scenarios). The bill also extends the report's deadline from January 31, 2027, to January 31, 2030. These changes mandate more detailed annual assessments of China's military activities and strategic intentions.
