Classified strategic and intel reports
This bill would require two new classified reports to Congress. The Director of National Intelligence would send a classified intelligence report within 60 days. It would describe current cooperation among the named adversaries and project likely changes over five years. The Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense would send a classified strategic report within 180 days covering the next two years. That report would list ways to disrupt dangerous cooperation, assess sanctions and export-control resourcing, recommend munitions stockpile and co-production plans, and require a plan to digitize DoD war‑planning tools to be finished within one year after the report is submitted. The bill would also name six Senate and six House committees to get these reports.
New interagency adversary task forces
If enacted, six agencies would each set up a task force on adversary alignment within 60 days and name a point of contact. Task forces must include experts on China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, cleared staff, and representatives for core agency functions. Each task force would send a report in 180 days about how adversary cooperation affects operations and recommend organizational changes. Task force leaders would meet at least quarterly.
Official adversary country designations
If enacted, the bill would officially label China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea under several federal categories used in procurement, lab visitor reviews, research rules, and defense statutes. Labels would include "foreign adversary," "country of risk," and "foreign country of concern." The designations would apply only for the specific laws the bill names.
