Saving Americans in Foreign Evacuations (SAFE) Act
This bill waives reimbursement requirements for U.S. citizens and permanent residents evacuating Israel due to the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack and subsequent conflict during fiscal year 2024. It requires the State Department to report within 180 days on expanding this cost-free evacuation policy globally, including estimated costs, additional responsibilities, needed authorities, and potential moral hazard concerns. The bill authorizes $2 million for State Department implementation of these provisions during fiscal year 2024.
