AI Summary
This bill aims to combat global corruption by establishing a tiered ranking system for countries based on their efforts to combat corruption. The bill defines key terms like "corrupt actor" and "significant corruption," and outlines minimum standards for countries to meet in order to be ranked as Tier 1, indicating they are complying with anti-corruption efforts. The bill also requires the Secretary of State to evaluate foreign persons engaged in significant corruption for potential sanctions under the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act, and mandates the designation of anti-corruption points of contact at U.S. diplomatic posts in Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries to coordinate and promote anti-corruption efforts.
