The Department of Defense is updating its rules to stop helping movies, TV shows, games, and documentaries that censor their content to please the Chinese government.

This change affects entertainment creators and aims to keep U.S. projects free and fair without foreign influence.

Starting May 7, 2026, the Department of Defense won’t make most new defense contractors share their greenhouse gas emissions unless it’s really needed for the contract. This change helps nontraditional contractors avoid extra paperwork, but DoD can still ask for info if it’s directly tied to the job. It’s a smart move to keep things fair and focused without slowing down important defense work.

This 5-year project aims to save lives, improve care, and see if this payment change makes sense long-term for trauma patients using TRICARE. It could affect costs and access to care for military families and veterans who need emergency blood transfusions during ambulance rides.
2026-13514 — Renewal of Department of Defense Federal Advisory Committee-Department of Defense Board of Actuaries
