El Salvador Accountability Act of 2025

HR 6878, the El Salvador Accountability Act of 2025, imposes sanctions on specific Salvadoran government officials and entities linked to gross human rights violations or corruption. The bill blocks U.S. assets of targeted individuals, bans their visas, prohibits U.S. financial loans to them, and restricts foreign exchange transactions involving them. It requires the President to report annually on sanctions, U.S. aid to El Salvador, and a detailed investigation into whether the Salvadoran government uses cryptocurrency for corruption or sanctions evasion. Sanctions terminate if the President certifies El Salvador complies with human rights standards and ceases corruption schemes, but remain in place for at least four years after enactment.
