Referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill orders the State Department to turn over records and explain any talks about getting an aircraft from Qatar that could later be given to an entity controlled by former President Donald Trump. It asks for emails, messages, meeting notes, audio, and even AI chat transcripts, and a report describing any promises made to Qatar, any private contracts discussed because of the transfer, and any legal review done. All of this must be sent to Congress within 30 days if the bill becomes law.
It also blocks the use of federal money to support or carry out a transfer of an aircraft owned by a foreign government to the U.S. Government, the President, or the Presidential Library of President Trump.
