The "No American Land for Communist China Act" seeks to prevent certain foreign entities from acquiring real estate near sensitive federal lands across the United States. This legislation mandates the President to prohibit the purchase of land adjacent to covered Federal land by agents of the Government of the People's Republic of China or by businesses where the PRC government holds 25 percent or more of the equity interests. Covered Federal land is broadly defined to include areas under the jurisdiction of the Secretaries of the Interior, Defense, Agriculture (specifically Forest Service land), and Energy. It also explicitly extends to land designated as Indian country . The bill's objective is to safeguard strategic national assets and mitigate potential national security risks associated with foreign ownership of land near critical government facilities and resources.
