HR 7271 United States House · 119th Congress

Evan Anzoo Memorial Act

HR 7271, the Evan Anzoo Memorial Act, requires the Comptroller General to produce a report investigating deaths linked to USAID service cuts. The bill mandates a one-year report estimating 2025 deaths and five-year future deaths due to USAID stop-work orders, plus an assessment of whether specific individuals (like Evan Anzoo, 5, South Sudan, who died after losing HIV treatment) died because of lost USAID services. It also requires an interim update within 180 days and a list of other verified deaths tied to these service disruptions. The act does not change USAID policy but directs a factual review of impacts from prior USAID service reductions.
