- Slotkin bill banning Chinese autos moves out of U.S. Senate committee with bipartisan support
The U.S. Senate Commerce Committee advanced the Connected Vehicle Security Act of 2026 with bipartisan support, a bill introduced by Sens. Elissa Slotkin and Bernie Moreno to ban Chinese vehicles with wireless communication capabilities from the U.S. due to data security and economic concerns. The legislation, supported by the United Auto Workers, would restrict connected vehicle software by 2027 and hardware by 2030, imposing penalties for non-compliance.
