The TSP Fiduciary Security Act (S. 1368, introduced 2025-04-09; H.R. 7357, introduced 2026-02-04) would do what the Quote asks: it requires Thrift Savings Fund fiduciaries to prevent investments that harm national security, including in entities on Defense and Commerce lists such as Chinese military companies, directs the Department of Labor to issue implementing regulations, exposes fiduciaries to personal liability from 2027-01-01, and prohibits mutual funds reachable through the mutual fund window from investing in any China-based entity. Both bills were referred to committee and neither has moved.
