Key Points

  • Congress proposes letting the President suspend all U.S. assistance to Honduras after U.S. military and civilian personnel leave Soto Cano Air Base.
  • The trigger is Honduras refusing or being unwilling to host U.S. personnel at that base, leading to their redeployment.
  • If used, the cutoff could include military help covered under a long-standing U.S.–Honduras assistance agreement and later updates.
  • This would likely affect security cooperation and other U.S.-supported programs tied to government-to-government assistance.
