Global Health, Empowerment and Rights Act
Introduced Jan 28, 2025 by Rep. Lois Frankel
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill establishes that a foreign nongovernmental organization shall not be disqualified from receiving certain U.S. international development assistance solely because the organization provides medical services (including counseling and referral services) using non-U.S. government funds if the medical services do not violate the laws of the country in which they are being provided. Such foreign organizations shall not be subject to requirements relating to their use of non-U.S. funds for advocacy or lobbying activities other than those that apply to U.S. nongovernmental organizations receiving such assistance.
Summary by the Congressional Research Service.
No floor votes yet — it hasn't reached the floor of either chamber.
