What this bill would do

The Pacific Partnership Act aims to strengthen United States involvement in the Pacific Islands region. It requires the President to develop and submit a comprehensive "Strategy for Pacific Partnership" by early 2026, with updates due in 2030. This strategy must address goals regarding diplomacy, defense, and economic engagement while assessing threats like natural disasters and illegal fishing. The bill also allows for the extension of diplomatic immunities to the Pacific Islands Forum. Additionally, it mandates coordination with regional allies and updates various existing federal reports to include regional discussions on crime.
