This bill, titled the "Maintaining American Superiority by Improving Export Control Transparency Act," amends the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 to enhance licensing transparency for export controls. It mandates the Secretary to submit annual reports to Congress detailing license applications , enforcement actions, and authorizations for items exported to "covered entities." These reports must include specific information for each application, such as the applicant's name, item description (including ECCN), end-user details, value estimates, and the final decision, alongside results of related enforcement activities like end-use checks. "Covered entities" are defined as those in Country Group D:5 nations on specific regulatory lists. While aggregate statistics will be public, most detailed information in these reports will remain confidential.
