Combating International Islamophobia Act
This bill establishes a new Office within the U.S. State Department to monitor and combat Islamophobia abroad, led by a Special Envoy appointed by the Secretary of State. It requires the State Department to include specific, detailed assessments of Islamophobic acts in three annual reports: the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices, the Foreign Assistance Act report, and the International Religious Freedom report. The reports must describe incidents like violence against Muslims or mosques, hate propaganda, government responses, and efforts to promote religious tolerance in foreign countries. This policy change directly affects how the U.S. government documents and tracks Islamophobia internationally, without altering existing laws or imposing new sanctions.
