Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Secretary of State to send Congress a 5-year sports diplomacy strategy within 180 days, and a second 5-year strategy about five years later, tied to major international sporting events hosted in the United States from 2024 to 2034, such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the 2028 and 2034 Olympics. The strategies must include goals, plans to partner with host cities and other groups, and a plan for a quick and secure visa process for athletes and visitors, and they must be posted publicly online. The bill would create an Office of Sports Diplomacy in the State Department to carry out the strategies; this office section would end 10 years after the law is enacted. The Secretary would also have to send Congress yearly progress reports until the end of 2034.
