HB1311

HB1311 requires the state's public universities and technical colleges to report any funding they receive from foreign governments, foreign-owned entities, or individuals from six specific countries (China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, and Venezuela). The bill defines what counts as funding broadly—including grants, donations, contracts, and salaries—but excludes tuition payments from foreign students. This creates a new transparency requirement so the state can track foreign financial ties to its higher education institutions.
