          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Decoupling from Foreign Adversarial Battery Dependence Act&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill prohibits the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from using appropriated funds to procure a battery produced by certain entities, particularly six specific companies owned and operated in China. This prohibition begins on October 1, 2027.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill allows DHS to waive the prohibition if DHS assesses in the affirmative that (1)&amp;nbsp;the batteries to be procured do not pose a risk to U.S. national security, data, or infrastructure; and (2)&amp;nbsp;there is no available alternative to procure batteries that are of similar or better cost and quality and that are produced by an entity not specified in this bill.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DHS may also waive the prohibition upon a determination that the batteries to be procured are for the sole purpose of research, evaluation, training, testing, or analysis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill requires DHS to notify Congress within 15 days after granting a waiver under this bill.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill also requires DHS to report to Congress on the anticipated impacts associated with carrying out this bill, including with respect to specified agencies of DHS.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
