This bill would make it easier for people to settle smaller tax disagreements with the IRS. It would double the amount of money involved in disputes that can go through a simpler court process, from $50,000 to $100,000. It would also make sure this limit keeps up with rising costs over time.

This bill would change who the U.S. government can prosecute for economic espionage. Currently, only companies largely owned by a foreign government are considered "foreign instrumentalities" under the law. The bill would expand this to also include any company based in a country the U.S. considers a "foreign adversary." This means more foreign companies could face legal action if they are caught spying on U.S. businesses.

State and local laws that try to hold these companies liable would also be overridden.

This aims to strengthen their ability to disrupt and prosecute these organizations.
