What this bill would do
This bill, known as the "SUPPLIES Act," requires the Department of State and USAID to create specific rules for handling leftover inventory. These rules must be established when a program, project, or activity is finished or terminated. The new procedures must prioritize making sure supplies are not destroyed, diverted, or allowed to expire. Once these procedures are created, both agencies must publish them on their public websites. The goal is to manage how commodities like food and medicine are handled when government projects end.
