Defense Department would create a plan for using new biotechnologies in national security.
This bill would require the Department of Defense to create a detailed plan within one year for how new biotechnologies affect national security. This plan would guide how the military uses these technologies, works with companies, and cooperates with international partners like NATO.
Currently, the Department of Defense does not have a specific, comprehensive strategy for how new biotechnologies affect national security. If this bill passes, the Secretary of Defense would be required to create and submit such a detailed strategy within one year, covering everything from how the military buys biotech products to how it cooperates with international partners.
