To amend chapter 111 of title 28, United States Code, to increase transparency and oversight of third-party funding by foreign persons, to prohibit third-party funding by foreign states and sovereign wealth funds, and for other purposes.

H.R. 2675 is legislation introduced in the House that would amend chapter 111 of title 28, United States Code, to regulate foreign third-party litigation funding. Sec. 2(a) would make it unlawful for foreign states and sovereign wealth funds to provide monetary support for civil actions in which they are not named parties. Sec. 2(c) would require parties and counsel to disclose foreign funding sources, related documents, and certifications to the court, the Attorney General, and the Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General for National Security. Sec. 3 would require the Attorney General to report to Congress on foreign third-party litigation funding in Federal courts. This matters to everyday people because it could affect how lawsuits are financed and how much foreign influence enters the U.S. court system.
