state land; foreign entities; prohibition

HB 4014 prohibits Arizona from selling state land within 10 miles of critical infrastructure (such as military bases, semiconductor plants, or power grids) to foreign-controlled entities without Attorney General approval. It requires buyers to disclose foreign ownership ties or provide a signed affidavit, with false statements subject to perjury charges. Violations carry a $250,000 civil penalty per acre and potential felony charges, while the Attorney General must review transactions for national security risks. Exceptions include transactions with under 1% foreign ownership or those preapproved by federal authorities like the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S.
