Bill > S677

This bill, the Allied Burden Sharing Report Act of 2021, requires the Secretary of Defense to submit an annual report to Congress on the contributions of various U.S. allies to the common defense. The report would include information on the annual defense spending of countries like NATO members, Gulf Cooperation Council members, and other key U.S. allies, as well as their participation in military and stability operations with the U.S. The bill also expresses the sense of Congress that the U.S. should seek greater security responsibilities and contributions from these allies in accordance with their collective defense agreements.
