Official Summary

Congressional Research Service summary

No CCP Financial Apps on Government Devices ActThis bill directs the Office of Management and Budget to develop standards and guidelines requiring the removal of certain financial service applications connected to China from the information technology of executive agencies.Specifically, this applies to an application (1) domiciled in a jurisdiction controlled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), or (2) if an entity domiciled in a jurisdiction controlled by the CCP has at least a 10% voting interest.The bill makes exceptions, including for law enforcement.

Key Points

Main provisions of the bill

The bill bans financial apps that are either domiciled in a jurisdiction controlled by the Chinese Communist Party or have at least a 10% voting interest from an entity in a CCP-controlled jurisdiction.
This applies to all executive branch agencies, with exceptions made for law enforcement and other national security purposes.
The goal is to limit the use of Chinese-owned financial technology within the federal government, out of concerns about data privacy and security.
