YourVoice.Now Summary
Transparency & AccountabilityNo direct change for households — orders a secret report on Russian and Chinese spying in Georgia, plus a five-year U.S. strategy.
Transparency & Accountability
The State Department, the spy agencies, and the Pentagon would write it together. It stays secret, so only eight House and Senate panels would see what it found.
The State Department would have to write a five-year plan for U.S. dealings with Georgia. It must state whether Georgia should keep getting a top share of U.S. aid, and whether U.S. money should keep going to Georgian projects.
More about this bill
Most people would notice no change in daily life. The bill orders two written reports about Georgia, a small country on the Black Sea, just south of Russia. Both would be due within 180 days after the bill becomes law. It spends no new money and starts no new programs. The first report is secret. It looks at how far Russian and Chinese spy networks reach inside Georgia. Eight House and Senate committees would see it. The second is a five-year plan for U.S. ties with Georgia. That plan must say whether Georgia should stay near the top of U.S. aid in the region. It must also judge whether Georgia's government still wants closer trade with the U.S. and Europe. Most of that plan would not be secret, though it comes with a classified section. Even so, the bill does not require making it public. The House passed the bill in June 2026, and it now sits with a Senate committee.
