Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs

This bill would formally place Executive Order 14292, which is about improving the safety and security of biological research, into statute. In effect, it would give the policies and requirements contained in the executive order the force of law, rather than leaving them as executive policy. The measure would ensure that the safety and security standards for biological research are binding across the relevant federal agencies and programs, subject to future statutory changes rather than unilateral executive action. The bill was introduced by Representative Self on July 23, 2025, and referred to the House committees on Energy and Commerce and on Science, Space, and Technology. The text provided contains only one section codifying the executive order, with no additional provisions.
