Prohibits certain U.S. businesses and other entities deemed integral to U.S. interests from complying with specified foreign "sustainability due diligence" rules, while allowing narrow routine-business exceptions and a Presidential exemption process. It also blocks recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments against those protected entities, directs the President to take protective actions, and creates a civil remedy and penalties (fines and temporary federal-contract ineligibility) for persons who try to coerce or punish covered entities for their compliance choices.
