Texas state Senate has passed a bill to limit farmland sales to China and other countries deemed risks to national security. The bill, passed on a “19-12 vote, restricts purchases of agricultural land, timberland, and oil and gas rights by entities associated with any country that “poses a risk to the national security of the United States” — as designated by three consecutive annual threat assessment analyses by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.”
