    Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950 (50 U.S.C. App. 
2170) is amended by striking subsections (a) and (b) and inserting the 
following new subsections:
    ``(a) National Security Review.--
            ``(1) In general.--Upon receiving written notification, as 
        prescribed by regulations under this section, of any proposed 
        or pending merger, acquisition, or takeover by or with any 
        foreign person which could result in foreign control of any 
        person engaged in interstate commerce in the United States, the 
        President or the President's designee shall review the proposed 
        or pending merger, acquisition, or takeover to determine 
        whether the proposed or pending merger, acquisition, or 
        takeover may possibly have an effect on the national security 
        of the United States.
            ``(2) Procedure.--The President or the President's designee 
        shall establish, by regulation, procedures that--
                    ``(A) require each of the factors listed in 
                subsection (f) to be considered in the course of a 
                review under paragraph (1); and
                    ``(B) require a specific response to be prepared 
                with respect to the applicability of each such factor 
                to the proposed or pending merger, acquisition, or 
                takeover under review.
            ``(3) Involvement of foreign government.--If the review 
        under paragraph (1) determines that the merger, acquisition, or 
        takeover could result in the control, directly or indirectly, 
        of any person engaged in interstate commerce in the United 
        States by a foreign government or an entity controlled by or 
        acting on behalf of a foreign government, the merger, 
        acquisition, or takeover shall be treated as possibly having an 
        effect on the national security of the United States for 
        purposes of requiring an investigation under subsection (b).
            ``(4) Approval of secretary.--In the case of any review of 
        a merger, acquisition, or takeover under paragraph (1) that 
        involves or has resulted in any agreement that establishes any 
        conditions on the transaction, or any requirements for any 
        person involved in the transaction, in order to mitigate 
        against any possible effect of the transaction on the national 
        security of the United States, any determination resulting from 
        the review shall not be treated as final until the 
        determination is approved by the President, the Secretary of 
        the Treasury, or the Deputy Secretary of the Treasury.
            ``(5) Timing.--Any review required under paragraph (1) 
        shall be completed before the end of the 30-day period 
        beginning on the date of the receipt by the President or the 
        President's designee of written notification of the proposed or 
        pending merger, acquisition, or takeover.
    ``(b) National Security Investigation.--
            ``(1) In general.--If any review of any proposed or pending 
        merger, acquisition, or takeover under subsection (a) results 
        in a determination that the merger, acquisition, or takeover 
        may possibly have an effect on the national security of the 
        United States, the President or the President's designee shall 
        conduct an investigation of--
                    ``(A) the possible effects of the merger, 
                acquisition, or takeover on the national security of 
                the United States; and
                    ``(B) possible actions to protect the national 
                security of the United States in connection with the 
                merger, acquisition, or takeover.
            ``(2) Procedure.--The President or the President's designee 
        shall establish, by regulation, procedures that--
                    ``(A) require any investigation under paragraph (1) 
                to analyze the proposed or pending merger, acquisition, 
                or takeover on the basis of each of the factors listed 
                in subsection (f);
                    ``(B) require a specific response to be prepared 
                with respect to the applicability of each such factor 
                to the proposed or pending merger, acquisition, or 
                takeover under review, the concerns that any such 
                applicability raises with regard to the transaction, 
                and any possible actions to address such concerns;
                    ``(C) subject to paragraph (3), establish 
                appropriate time frames for an investigation that 
                ensures sufficient time to address relevant issues 
                concerning any proposed or pending merger, acquisition, 
                or takeover;
                    ``(D) take into account the impact of 
                investigations on the open investment policy of the 
                United States; and
                    ``(E) in any case in which the investigation under 
                paragraph (1) is conducted by a designee of the 
                President, provide guidance to the designee for 
                determining the manner and under what circumstances the 
                designee shall report the results of the investigation 
                and the recommendations of the designee to the 
                President for the President's consideration.
            ``(3) Timing.--Any investigation required under paragraph 
        (1) shall be completed before the end of the 45-day period 
        beginning on the date of the determination under subsection (a) 
        that the merger, acquisition, or takeover may possibly have an 
        effect on the national security of the United States.''.

Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States Reform Act - Amends the Defense Production Act of 1950 to revise provisions concerning presidential authority to review any mergers, acquisitions, and takeovers (transactions) that could result in foreign control of persons engaged in interstate commerce in the United States. Directs the President, after receiving written notification of a transaction, to determine whether the transaction may possibly have an effect on U.S. national security. Requires an investigation whenever a review determines that the transaction could result in foreign control of persons engaged in U.S. interstate commerce. Provides that, when a review determines that conditions must be established on the transaction before its approval, such determination shall not be final until approved by the President and either the Secretary or Deputy Secretary of the Treasury. Outlines national security investigation requirements and procedures.

Authorizes the President to establish interim protections in the case of a withdrawal of written notice of a proposed or pending transaction before a review or investigation is completed.

Provides additional factors to be considered in an investigation, including whether the transaction affects U.S. critical infrastructure.

Requires annual and quarterly reports to Congress on such reviews and investigations.

Reestablishes the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) as a multi-agency committee (currently, a committee within the Department of the Treasury).
