Key points
  • Makes the U.S. flag the sole visual-branding element on foreign assistance, with the flag distinctively displayed.
  • Allows the Secretary of State to permit other branding case by case when an international agreement requires co-branding, when needed to identify implementing partners, or for other necessary reasons, as long as the flag remains most prominent.
  • Lets the Secretary of State waive the requirement to protect personnel or beneficiaries in high-risk locations and directs regulations on flag size, color accuracy, and placement.
  • Defines foreign assistance to include buildings, equipment, food aid, medical supplies, signage, and websites or social media posts, and applies to assistance provided after enactment.
