What happened
The U.S. Treasury Department proposed a rule to restrict American high-tech investments in China, Russia, and North Korea, among other countries of concern. This rule expands existing restrictions, which began in 2023 when President Joe Biden signed an executive order. The proposed rule covers investments in hypersonic systems, supercomputing, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence.
Why it matters
The U.S. government has been working to deny China and other adversaries investments that could help them boost their military power. Congress codified and expanded the original investment restriction program in December 2025 to target more technologies and foreign countries.
