Additionally, recent legislative developments, notably the enactment of the Foreign Adversary Contracting Prohibition Act (LB 1300) in Nebraska, impact the contracting process by restricting public entities from engaging with companies controlled by foreign adversaries for technology-related services. This law requires bidders to certify that their companies are not scrutinized entities linked to foreign adversaries such as China, Iran, North Korea, Russia, or regimes like Maduro’s. The overarching goal of this legislation is to safeguard state security and residents’ privacy by mitigating political and security risks associated with foreign-controlled companies.
