Plain-English Summary

The legislation would require think tanks and nonprofit organizations to disclose any funding they receive from foreign governments or foreign-controlled entities, similar to existing rules for lobbyists. This transparency measure would help the public and policymakers understand which foreign interests may be influencing policy research and advocacy in the United States. The bill affects research institutions, advocacy groups, and foreign donors who currently may not have to publicly report such financial relationships.
