Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 4 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Existing systems can stay until replacement

The law does not force removal of technology already in place before the effective date. Agencies and providers can keep using it for the normal life of the equipment or service. Contractors and grantees are not required to replace it early.

OGS rules and fast federal updates

The Office of General Services issues rules and guidance to carry out the law. OGS can start now and must have rules ready by the law’s effective date. OGS provides updates on prohibited or excluded entities within 60 days of any new federal designation. The main procurement ban takes effect two years after enactment.

Public list of restricted technologies

The Chief Information Officer creates and keeps a public list of restricted technologies. Each entry explains what is restricted, how the restriction applies, and why it is listed. The list is posted online and shared with procurement officers. The CIO updates it regularly based on threats and federal guidance.

State and local ban on risky technology

New York state agencies cannot buy or renew contracts for tech that federal law bans under section 889. Local governments also cannot buy tech on the federal ban or on New York’s restricted list. “Information and communications technology” includes information technology, information systems, and telecom equipment and services. Automated decision‑making systems are not covered by this ban.

Limited waivers for needed tech purchases

Certain officials can grant a waiver to buy a restricted item. A waiver is allowed only if it serves state or local interests and no compliant U.S. product is available at U.S. market prices or at a non‑prohibitive price. The waiver also cannot be expected to harm the security of a state‑run computer network.
