critical infrastructure; foreign adversaries; prohibition

Summary

The bill would forbid any software used in the state’s critical infrastructure from being produced by a Chinese company and would create a list of prohibited technologies, such as certain routers, cameras, and IoT devices. Government agencies and critical‑infrastructure providers must certify annually that they are not using prohibited tech, report any existing Chinese‑made equipment, and replace it when funding is available. The measure aims to reduce perceived security risks from foreign adversaries but was vetoed by the governor.
