Bill > HR867

This bill amends the Anti-Boycott Act of 2018 to expand its provisions to include international governmental organizations (IGOs) alongside existing regulations about foreign countries. Specifically, the bill modifies several sections of the existing law to add language that explicitly includes IGOs in prohibitions and reporting requirements related to boycotts. The amendments mean that the Act's existing restrictions and reporting mechanisms will now apply not just to foreign countries, but also to international governmental organizations that may be attempting to foster or impose boycotts. The bill requires the President to submit an annual report to Congress that lists foreign countries and international organizations engaged in boycotts, along with a detailed description of those boycotts. By broadening the scope of the Anti-Boycott Act, the legislation aims to provide more comprehensive oversight and potential sanctions against entities attempting to organize or support economic boycotts. The bill, which would be known as the "IGO Anti-Boycott Act," represents an expansion of existing anti-boycott legal frameworks to address international organizational activities.
