Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Introduced March 6, 2025 by Timothy Burchett · Last progress 1 year ago
Requires greater oversight, public disclosure, and new limits on many U.S. overseas cultural, health, education, and advocacy grants and criticizes existing foreign spending. The text records a long list of previously made foreign grants and project amounts and directs audits, public reporting within 90 days, a spending cap on cultural/advocacy grants, congressional approval for grants above $10,000, and urges redirecting some funds to domestic priorities unless an overseas program clearly advances U.S. national security or economic interests.
The measure does not appropriate new funds; it frames past expenditures as findings and sets transparency and review requirements and policy preferences for future overseas grant-making and public diplomacy activities.
