The bill would keep a U.S. reward program alive for tips that help recover assets stolen through foreign corruption. It would rename the program and let it run for 7 more years after the bill becomes law.

Latest action on H.R. 5344: Placed on the Union Calendar, Calendar No. 322.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects people and organizations that may have information about assets stolen by corrupt foreign officials. It also affects U.S. officials who use tips to track and recover those assets. For the public, the effect is indirect because the bill does not say how recovered assets must be used.
Why this matters: Corrupt foreign officials can hide stolen money or property through banks and other financial systems. This bill keeps a reward tool in place to help the U.S. find those assets. More tips could help the government recover more stolen wealth. But the bill does not show how well the program has worked so far, and it does not add new public reporting rules.
