Security shall ensure that an institution of higher education (referred 
to in this subsection as an ``institution'') which has a relationship 
with a Confucius Institute or Chinese entity of concern is ineligible 
to receive any funds from the Department of Homeland Security, unless

such Confucius Institute or Chinese entity of concern, as the case may 
be. Upon termination of such a relationship, the institution at issue 
shall be eligible to receive funds from the Department of Homeland 
Security.
