Secure E-Waste Export and Recycling Act

When old electronics like computers, phones, and servers get shipped overseas, they can be stripped for parts that end up as counterfeit components in military and civilian supply chains. This bill would make it illegal to export electronic waste unless the exporter registers with the Commerce Department, files detailed export paperwork, and proves the items are either fully functional, properly destroyed, or manufacturer-recalled and repaired. There's an exception for personal shipments of 20 items or fewer. Violators would face the same penalties as other export control violations.
