Republic of Georgia Sovereignty Act

Key Points

• This bill makes it official U.S. policy to view the regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia as part of the country of Georgia. It stops the U.S. government from treating these areas as their own independent nations.
• Under this plan, no federal department or agency would be allowed to give money, provide help, or take any action that suggests these two regions are separate from Georgia. This ensures all parts of the government follow the same rules when dealing with this area.
• The goal is to support the Republic of Georgia's control over its own borders. These regions have been at the center of long-running conflicts involving Russia, and this bill clarifies that the U.S. stands with Georgia's claims to the land.
