AI Summary
This bill creates the Military Installation and Critical Infrastructure Protection Act of 2025, which implements several restrictions on foreign principals from foreign adversary countries. The legislation prohibits such entities from owning agricultural land or property near military bases, requiring them to sell or transfer any such holdings within 180 days. Companies must register their agricultural land ownership and obtain certification to access critical infrastructure, with specific requirements including background checks on employees and prohibiting foreign nationals from adversary countries from accessing sensitive systems. The bill also mandates the removal of software produced by banned corporations or from foreign adversary countries in state infrastructure, and establishes a whistleblower program that allows individuals to report violations and receive up to 30% of the proceeds from land sales resulting from successful enforcement actions. The Attorney General is granted significant authority to oversee and enforce these provisions, including the ability to commence legal actions, review non-notified transactions, and submit reports to federal authorities. The act defines key terms like "critical infrastructure" broadly to include systems vital to state and national security, such as energy, water, telecommunications, transportation, and data systems, with the goal of protecting Oklahoma's strategic assets from potential foreign interference.
