This bill tightens how the U.S. screens real estate deals near sensitive federal sites. It tells a federal review group to create and keep an official list of government facilities that matter for national security. The list can include intelligence facilities and National Labs. Agencies must check the list every year, suggest updates, and report back. The reviewers must also report how many real estate cases they handled involving these sites, and they can brief certain members of Congress in a classified setting when asked .

For people and communities, this means land purchases near sensitive sites—especially by foreign buyers—are more likely to face review and possible delays. Federal agencies will update the list by January 31 each year, so areas near newly added sites could see more scrutiny over time .
