Contact Congress about S. 1854: Foreign Aid Transparency and Accountability Enhancement Act

ForeignAssistance.gov would have to show foreign aid data in more detail. Users could search by country, agency, year, award amount, and aid partners. The bill changes public access to data, not aid spending.

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.

Foreign Aid Transparency and Accountability Enhancement Act is a Senate bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects federal agencies that manage foreign aid data and people who use that data. Agencies may need to organize and report their information in more detail. Researchers, journalists, watchdog groups, and the public could more easily track where aid money goes and who carries out the work.

Why this matters: Foreign aid data can be hard to track when it is not detailed or easy to search. This bill would make it easier to see where U.S. aid money goes, which agencies handle it, and which groups do the work. That could help with public oversight, research, and comparisons across aid projects. The bill does not show by itself how much oversight would improve.

Key provisions in S. 1854

  • Foreign aid information would have to be posted in detail. That includes award-by-award data.
  • ForeignAssistance.gov would need searches by country or region, funding agency, managing agency, sector, total award amount, funding account, fiscal year, and aid partners.
  • The aid partner search would include both main award recipients and groups that receive subawards.
  • The bill updates the part of the 2016 foreign aid transparency law that covers public reporting of foreign aid data.
  • The bill does not raise or cut foreign aid. It only changes how aid information appears and how people can search it online.
