State Department would prioritize American-made goods, speed up visas, and change how foreign aid is given.
This bill would update how the U.S. State Department operates, both at home and abroad. It would change rules for embassies, how the U.S. buys products, and how it provides foreign assistance. The bill also includes new ways to address human rights issues and counter foreign influence.
Today, the State Department operates under existing foreign policy guidelines and procurement rules. After this bill, the department would be required to prioritize American-made products, follow new rules for embassy displays, and change how it provides foreign assistance through a new "global health compact" model. It would also gain new authority to designate countries for wrongful detention and deny passports to individuals supporting terrorism.
