To require a report on payments provided to the Taliban and congressional review of agreements signed with the Taliban.
HR 6617 requires U.S. agencies to report on payments made by U.S.-funded organizations in Afghanistan to the Taliban. Specifically, it mandates a report within 90 days detailing all payments (including fees, taxes, and rent) made by these entities to the Taliban between August 1, 2021, and 30 days after the bill's enactment. It also requires agencies to submit copies of any new agreements with the Taliban within 15 days of signing, plus a comprehensive report on all prior agreements from August 31, 2021, onward. This bill directly affects U.S. government-funded organizations, including UN entities, operating humanitarian or development programs in Afghanistan.
