   The report is greatly expanded, adding detailed provisions on China, critical raw materials, trade agreements, enforcement, and sectoral policies. It calls for stronger action on economic security, including new tools, higher duties, and more resources for enforcement. It adds many new paragraphs on investment screening, export controls, and sectoral resilience, while removing some original paragraphs. The other changes are wording updates, changing 'interdependence' to 'interdependency'.
