Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Rewards Program Act

H. R. 5344 To amend the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Rewards Act to extend the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Rewards Pilot Program, and for other purposes.

Introduced Sep 15, 2025

Latest action (Nov 4, 2025) Placed on the Union Calendar, Calendar No. 322.

Summary

This bill amends the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Rewards Act to convert the existing pilot program into a permanent Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Rewards Program. The bill removes the previous 3-year time limitation on the program and instead establishes a 7-year authorization period, after which the program will cease to have any force or effect. The bill makes conforming amendments to reflect the change from a pilot program to a permanent program in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021.
