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.

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.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
