Both houses of Congress now have voted to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2021. Although the threat of a presidential veto still hangs over the NDAA, we highlight below a few of the procurement-related provisions that likely will remain once the NDAA is enacted and will be of wide interest to federal contractors. Note that many of these new statutory provisions will require implementation through notice-and-comment rulemaking before they are likely to have any practical effect on contractors.
Our colleagues in MoFo’s National Security group have compiled their own summary, which analyzes a host of sanctions and related measures, including sanctions targeting Turkey’s purchase of a Russian air defense missile system, Russian energy export pipelines, and Chinese Military Companies and other activities in the United States. We encourage you to read it, as well, and to engage with our National Security group should you have any follow up questions.
