Answer

sec:answer-9148dcb0

The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), reformed by the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (FIRRMA), reviews covered transactions for national-security risk. Mandatory declarations apply to foreign acquisitions of US businesses dealing in critical technologies (aligned to the 'emerging and foundational technologies' regime), critical infrastructure, or sensitive personal data. Critical-minerals extraction and processing businesses on federal land fall squarely within covered real-estate and covered-control jurisdiction.
