Eastern Frontier Defense Infrastructure Readiness Act

The Eastern Frontier Defense Infrastructure Readiness Act directs the U.S. Department of Defense to assess how well NATO allies on the Eastern Frontier are upgrading their critical infrastructure to support military operations against Russian threats. This report will evaluate progress in areas such as transportation, energy, communications, and industrial capacity, while also checking if these nations are meeting their financial commitment to defense spending. Based on the findings, the act authorizes the Secretary of Defense to prioritize security assistance and funding for these specific countries to address identified gaps. Additionally, an independent review by the Comptroller General will verify the accuracy of the initial report and the effectiveness of the allies' spending plans.
