Afghanistan Accountability Act of 2015

The Afghanistan Accountability Act of 2015 aims to ensure that U.S. taxpayer-funded assistance to Afghanistan is used effectively by requiring stricter oversight and anti-corruption measures. It authorizes the U.S. government to impose sanctions, such as visa bans and asset freezes, on Afghan officials found to be involved in significant corruption or the theft of international aid. Additionally, the bill conditions future financial support on the Afghan government meeting specific benchmarks for reform, including improvements to the legal system, private sector growth, and the protection of women and girls.
