What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill would require states to ban certain foreign countries from buying farmland if they want to keep receiving federal money from some programs funded by the Inflation Reduction Act. The banned countries include Belarus, Burma, China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela, and Russia. States would also have to make people from these countries who already own farmland file yearly reports about their land holdings. The bill asks the Department of Agriculture and Government Accountability Office to write reports about foreign investment in farmland and how this law might affect national security.
