Cline’s Protecting Our Courts from Foreign Manipulation Act Advances to House Floor | 2025-11-18 | 2025 | 2025-11 | Republican | House | VA | Ben Cline | C001118 | cline.house.gov | cline | https://cline.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | Today, H.R. 2675, the Protecting Our Courts from Foreign Manipulation Act, sponsored by Congressman Ben Cline (VA-06), passed out of the House Judiciary Committee. If signed into law, the bill would protect American courts from potential threats posed by foreign entities seeking to manipulate legal and regulatory processes in the United States. “Foreign adversaries like the CCP have no business secretly influencing America’s courts. My bill safeguards the integrity of our judicial system and ensures that the decisions made in U.S. courtrooms are driven by justice, not by hidden foreign interests. I am proud to see it pass out of the House Judiciary Committee today,” said Rep. Ben Cline. Specifically, H.R. 2675 would: 1. Require disclosure from any foreign person or entity participating in civil litigation as a third-party litigation funder in U.S. federal courts; 2. Ban sovereign wealth funds and foreign governments from participating in litigation finance as a third-party litigation funder, either directly or indirectly; and 3. Require the Department of Justice’s National Security Division to submit a report on foreign third-party litigation funding throughout the federal judiciary. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
