HR 6123 United States House · 118th Congress

Bring Americans Home Act

The Bring Americans Home Act prohibits the U.S. Department of State from requiring American citizens to pay for government-assisted evacuations or departures from crisis situations abroad. It directly affects U.S. citizens evacuated by the State Department or receiving government-arranged departure assistance during emergencies overseas. The bill's key provision explicitly bans the Secretary of State from charging these costs, overriding any existing laws that might impose such fees. This ensures citizens face no financial burden when the government arranges their safe return from dangerous locations.
