Ordered to be Reported in the Nature of a Substitute by the Yeas and Nays: 45 - 1.
Summary
The Humanitarian Theft Enforcement Act requires any foreign person or entity found responsible for the unauthorized diversion or destruction of U.S. humanitarian assistance to pay the United States for the assistance’s value. The Secretary of State determines responsibility, seeks to recover the amount, and can credit the recovered funds to State Department accounts or transfer them to the agency that funded the aid. A waiver may be granted if the Secretary judges it to be in the national interest.
