BRAVE Burma Act

What's in it

See official bill text

Reduces deficit by less than $500,000 over 2026-2035; spending on reporting and advocacy costs less than $500,000 over 2026-2030.

The federal cost to enforce this bill is negligible (less than $500,000), limited to staff time for annual determinations and reporting; the bill's real impact falls on Burmese individuals and entities through visa denials, asset freezes, and potential civil penalties.
