Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act of 2025

The Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act of 2025 would require the Secretary of State to produce, within 180 days of enactment and then annually for five years, a detailed report on ties between Haitian criminal gangs and political/economic elites. The report would identify gangs and their leaders, map their activities and geographic presence, name elites with direct links to gangs, describe how these ties advance political or economic aims, assess ties to transnational criminal networks, and evaluate the potential actions the U.S. government could take. If the report identifies individuals or entities, the President would be required to impose sanctions within 90 days, including blocking property and restricting visas or admission to the United States, with limited humanitarian and international obligation exemptions. The act sunsets five years after enactment unless renewed. Reports would be unclassified, though a classified annex could be included. In short, the bill aims to increase transparency about collusion between Haitian gangs and elites and to use targeted sanctions as a lever to disrupt those ties and protect U.S. interests and Haitian civilians, while preserving humanitarian exemptions and international obligations.
