Aid Accountability Act of 2025
The Aid Accountability Act of 2025 amends foreign aid laws to impose strict penalties for violations. It requires federal employees who knowingly violate aid rules to be terminated permanently, pay restitution for illegally allocated funds, and face a lifetime ban from federal employment. Non-federal recipients (like grantee organizations) who violate these rules are barred from future federal funding. The Secretary of State must make final violation determinations, report violations to Congress within 60 days - including details on who violated the rules and how to prevent recurrence - and submit these reports under the Congressional Review Act.
