HR6107119th Congress
PAID OFF Act of 2025
Sponsored By: Representative Pfluger
Introduced
Summary
Closes certain FARA exemptions for agents tied to corporate or government entities owned or controlled by specified "countries of concern". It would also require Congress to approve any changes to the "countries of concern" list through a special joint resolution process.
Show full summary
- Agents and U.S. firms that represent foreign principals who are corporate or government entities owned or controlled by those listed countries would lose the cited FARA exemptions and would face registration and reporting obligations.
- The Secretary of State, in consultation with the Attorney General, could propose adding or removing countries but could not change the list without a congressional joint resolution that meets specific content and referral requirements.
- Congress would gain final, time-limited control over the list because any amendment would require the approved joint resolution format and the authority to modify the list would terminate five years after enactment.

Tighter rules for agents of certain countries
If enacted, this bill would narrow some exemptions in the foreign agents law. The exemptions would not apply when an agent works for a company or government owned or controlled by listed “countries of concern.” The Secretary of State, with the Attorney General, could propose adding or removing countries, but a change would take effect only if Congress passes a joint resolution. The rule would start upon enactment and would end five years after enactment.
