## Summary

**Tightens and speeds interagency export-control rulemaking focused on China’s military-civil fusion.** This bill would formalize which agencies can submit export-control proposals to the Export Administration Review Board and set deadlines and vote rules for those proposals. - Exporters and U.S. companies would face clearer risk signals and possible new limits. The Secretary of State must lead a review of the PRC's military-civil fusion within 30 days and propose changes within 90 days, which could include additions to a Military End-User List or tighter end-use controls. - Federal agencies and the Board would use a formal coordination process for rulemaking. The Board would be required to vote on submitted proposals within set timeframes and start rulemaking with a simple majority, with a single 30-day extension available if requested and accepted. - Congress and oversight bodies would receive a comprehensive report within 150 days detailing the review, proposed rules, Board-approved changes, and recommended statutory fixes to address PRC risks.
