Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Tighter checks on U.S. aid recipients

If enacted, Treasury, State, and USAID would jointly review U.S. aid to nonprofits and international groups. The review would check if funds are passed to the Taliban, other terrorist groups, or countries that harbor them. They would send Congress a joint report within 90 days after enactment. Within 180 days, the agencies would require prime awardees to prove all sub-awardees follow U.S. anti-terrorism financing laws. This aims to stop U.S. dollars from reaching terrorist actors.

Oppose IMF reserve credits for terror states

If enacted, Treasury would tell the U.S. director at the IMF to oppose new reserve credits for certain countries. The U.S. would vote against allocations to any country found to commit genocide or listed as a state sponsor of terrorism by the Secretary of State. The U.S. would also push the IMF to adopt a rule blocking such allocations. This would not directly change your taxes or benefits.
