TO AUTHORIZE THE INTRODUCTION OF A NONAPPROPRIATION BILL TO PROHIBIT THE USE OF A COMPUTER MANUFACTURED BY A COVERED FOREIGN ENTITY IN DIGITAL ASSET MINING AND PROHIBIT THE USE OF CERTAIN SOFTWARE IN DIGITAL ASSET MINING.

Summary

The resolution would let a bill ban Arkansas digital‑asset miners from using computers made by, or software created by, "covered foreign entities" – primarily those tied to China or Russia. It defines those entities, adds a new prohibition to state law, and sets misdemeanor or felony penalties for violations. The measure never advanced beyond committee.
