Bill overview
The Leave No Americans Behind Act of 2026 aims to reform the way the State Department handles the evacuation and return of U.S. citizens from foreign countries facing crises. Specifically, it eliminates the repatriation loan program, which previously provided loans to help Americans cover the cost of returning home. This change intends to streamline the process and reduce potential financial burdens on evacuees. The bill modifies the State Department Basic Authorities Act of 1956 to achieve these goals.
