Illinois SB4179 prohibits companies with Chinese government ownership from bidding on state contracts.
Illinois SB4179 amends the Illinois Procurement Code to prohibit companies in which the government of China has an ownership stake from bidding on state contracts. This applies to contracts for goods, services, or the procurement or purchase of computers, printers, or interoperable videoconferencing services. The prohibition also extends to cases where a state agency has contracted with a third party for the procurement or purchase of such equipment. Companies must certify that they are not a "company of concern," and false certifications can result in a civil penalty.
