§254c–1 Policy toward certain agents of foreign governments

Summary

Limit the number, status, travel, housing, and facilities given to foreign government officials in the United States so they do not exceed what U.S. officials get in that foreign government’s country when that foreign government runs intelligence activities in the U.S. that harm U.S. national security. The Secretary of State must work with and consult the Director of the FBI and the Director of National Intelligence when negotiating those reciprocal arrangements. Not later than 90 days after December 18, 2025, and annually thereafter for 5 years, the Secretary of State, the FBI Director, and the Director of National Intelligence must report to the Select Committee on Intelligence, the Committee on Foreign Relations, the Committee on the Judiciary, and the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate and to the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, the Committee on the Judiciary, and the Committee on Appropriations of the House about each foreign government that both harms U.S. national security with intelligence activities here and has greater numbers, status, privileges, travel, housing, or facilities in the U.S. than U.S. officials have in that country.
