Rep. MarioDB — More strength, less waste: House foreign policy bill funds national security by drastically reducing wasteful spending
and American foreign policy programs around the world. I am proud of this bill for its fiscal responsibility, advancement of our national security interests, and support for freedom, democracy, and human rights around the world. We are achieving more for our allies and vital national security interests by dramatically cutting spending overall.
Just as important as the funding is the policy. The bill prohibits funds to the Chinese Communist Party and its government and requires opposition to multilateral development bank lending for the PRC. Funds are also prohibited to countries for repaying Chinese debt. And, the bill puts an end to self-defeating policies such as climate-related regulations that close the door to American investment and throw open the door for China.
And, in our own hemisphere, this bill includes significant advancements to promote democracy and human rights. It restores funding of $35 million to Miami’s Office of Cuba Broadcasting , which provides outside, uncensored information to the Cuban people. This funding is the first step toward rebuilding OCB after the Biden administration’s unjustifiable reductions to that agency — cuts that shamefully continued even after the historic July 11, 2021, protests in Cuba.
