To require that United States assistance may be provided to the government of a foreign country only if a treaty of extradition between that country and the United States is in force, or the government of that country and the United States have entered into negotiations to conclude a treaty of extradition.
Summary
H.R. 2877 would prohibit the United States from providing foreign aid to any country that does not have an active extradition treaty with the U.S. or is not currently in negotiations to establish one. This requirement ensures that countries receiving American financial assistance are legally committed to returning individuals wanted for crimes to face trial in the United States. To protect vulnerable populations, the bill includes a specific exemption that allows humanitarian aid to continue regardless of a country's extradition status.
