Contact Congress about H.R. 2643: Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act of 2025

The U.S. would freeze assets and ban travel for Haitian gang leaders and the political and business elites tied to them. The State Department must publish annual reports identifying who is involved, and the President must impose sanctions within 90 days of each report. The law includes protections for humanitarian aid and sunsets after five years.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act of 2025 is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.

Latest action on H.R. 2643: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.

Who this affects: The bill primarily targets Haitian gang leaders and the political and business elites who work with them. It also affects U.S. banks and businesses that might hold assets for sanctioned individuals. Humanitarian organizations operating in Haiti are specifically protected, and everyday Haitians who depend on foreign aid should not see disruptions to relief efforts.

Why this matters: Haiti's crisis is partly driven by powerful people who profit from gang violence. This bill forces transparency about those relationships and backs it up with real consequences — frozen assets and travel bans. The required reports could also reveal how gang networks connect to transnational crime and migration flows to the U.S. border, giving policymakers better information to act on.

Key provisions in H.R. 2643

  • The Secretary of State must submit an initial report within 180 days, then annual reports for five years, detailing ties between Haitian gangs and political and economic elites.
  • Each report must name prominent criminal gangs and their leaders, describe their crimes and territories, and identify the elites and organizations directly linked to them.
  • Reports must assess connections between Haitian elites, gangs, and transnational criminal organizations, including any role in trafficking people to the U.S. border.
  • Reports must evaluate how collusion between elites and gangs harms the Haitian people and U.S. national interests in Haiti.
  • Within 90 days of each report, the President must sanction every foreign person identified as a gang leader or as an elite with direct gang ties.
