Rubio Unveils Bills Targeting China’s Collection of Americans’ DNA
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has introduced two bills to counter the Chinese regime’s efforts to collect the genomic data of Americans through both legal and illegal means.
The Republican senator, who has been a leading voice in addressing the issue, introduced the Genomics Expenditures and National Security Enhancement (GENE) Act and The Genomics Data Security Act on Thursday.
