No Funding Without Freedom Act
This bill blocks U.S. funding for Afghanistan through the State Department until the Secretary of State certifies that all detained U.S. citizens held by Afghanistan's government or groups within Afghanistan have been released. It requires the President to provide detailed justification to Congress if a waiver is needed to release a detained citizen, and mandates quarterly reports to Congress on the status of detained Americans and efforts to secure their release. The bill also specifies that determinations about detained citizens must follow procedures outlined in the Robert Levinson Hostage Recovery Act. It directly affects U.S. foreign aid funding for Afghanistan and the Afghan government/groups holding Americans.
