Q: If an individual is Iranian citizen, but also American permanent resident simultaneously,
who owns a business in the US, and is looking to bid on a contract that is not in connection with critical infrastructure, does the government code section 2274.0102 still apply?

A:
Government Code section 2274.0102 focuses on restricting contracts with certain foreign-owned entities, particularly when it comes to critical infrastructure. Since the contract in question is not connected with critical infrastructure, this specific section might not apply directly.
However, other regulations and considerations could still be relevant. For instance, there might be other federal or state laws that address foreign ownership or dual citizenship in the context of government contracts. It's important to ensure that all aspects of compliance, including any potential conflicts of interest or security concerns, are thoroughly reviewed.
Given the complexities of government contracting, it would be wise to consult with a legal advisor who can provide specific guidance based on the details of the situation. This will help in understanding all relevant laws and ensuring that your bid is in full compliance with applicable regulations.
