Bill > S2678

This bill reauthorizes the Global Fragility Act of 2019, extending its provisions and making several key modifications to enhance conflict prevention and stabilization efforts. The bill requires annual meetings of senior government officials to evaluate and align the strategy's objectives with current policy priorities, and expands interagency coordination by including additional organizations like the US Development Finance Corporation and Millennium Challenge Corporation. It allows the President to select new priority countries for intervention, with a requirement to notify Congress 30 days before adding a new country or region. The bill specifically discontinues implementation of the strategy in Haiti and Libya while continuing efforts in Coastal West Africa, Mozambique, and Papua New Guinea. It also extends funding for the Prevention and Stabilization Fund and Complex Crises Fund through 2030, and authorizes the use of Economic Support Fund resources for monitoring, evaluation, and learning activities in priority countries. The legislation emphasizes a comprehensive approach to addressing global fragility by integrating diplomatic, development, and defense tools, with a focus on improving coordination, assessment, and effectiveness of foreign assistance programs to enhance US national security interests.
