This bill changes part of the Research and Development, Competition, and Innovation Act. It updates the written definition used for the malign foreign talent recruitment restriction. The changes add the phrase "of concern" after "foreign country" wherever that term appears. The bill replaces some wording so the definition now reads "means any program, position, or activity." It removes one subparagraph, redesignates several listed items as new subparagraphs, and changes "directly provided" to "whether directly or indirectly provided." One item’s trailing punctuation is changed to a period.
