What it does

The Small Business Administration must make and share warning guides about foreign threats. These threats include stealing ideas, hacking, forced labor, and fake goods. The SBA must update the guides every year. The SBA must tell Congress about big national security risks it finds.

Who it affects

Small company owners get information from the government about foreign threats. They learn how to protect themselves. The bill does not create new rules or limits.

One thing to notice

The SBA has broad power to decide what counts as a foreign threat. The bill says to avoid guides that would stop lawful trade.
