Banning Foreign Investment- Happy Birthday USA.

I’m a practical person. There were people living on this land before Columbus and the English arrived. The people who came to this land were foreigners & now descendants want to ban foreign investment. This is an interesting valley of irony in U.S. history.

In Texas, the ban is with legislation. SB 147 (2023 | TX) would prohibit investment in real property by persons (corporations too) from China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. SB 522 (2023 | TX) would prohibit investments in agricultural land by persons (corporations too) from China, Russia, Iran and North Korea.

In South Dakota, the ban is by Executive Order. It will stop state agencies from doing business with telecoms or IT firms that are tied to China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia and Venezuela.
