Last updated: 10/21/2025 · Introduced: 10/21/2025

Author: Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA)

TL;DR (AI)

  • The bill designates the Russian Federation as a state sponsor of terrorism if the Secretary of State cannot certify that kidnapped Ukrainian children have been reunited with their families within 60 days of the Act's effective date.
  • The designation can be rescinded if the Russian Federation has not supported international terrorism in the preceding 3-month period, has reunited all kidnapped children with their families, and has begun the process of reintegrating these children into Ukrainian society.
  • The bill is a response to the Russian Federation's actions in Ukraine, including the kidnapping, deportation, or displacement of at least 19,546 Ukrainian children, and the forced assimilation of these children into Russian culture.
