Bill overview
The Open Translation Center Act of 2024 establishes a federally funded research and development center, the Open Translation Center (OTC), to translate and analyze foreign language documents from designated countries, primarily focusing on China. The goal is to improve U.S. policymakers’ understanding of other nations’ governments, policies, and intentions, and to make this information publicly available. The OTC will be overseen by a board appointed by the Secretary of State, Director of National Intelligence, and the Register of Copyrights, and will utilize modern technologies to achieve its mission.
