Posts - Bill - HR 2924 NATO Burden Sharing Enforcement Act

house 04/17/2025 - 119th Congress

We are working to ensure that NATO member countries meet their agreed defense spending commitments by authorizing the Secretary of State to stop issuing visas to nationals from countries that fail to spend at least 2 percent of their GDP on national defense. This aims to encourage fair burden-sharing among allies.

If your ally won’t pay their share, maybe their travelers shouldn’t get a free ride—sounds fair.

Our allies need to put their money where their mouth is, or don’t expect open doors.

Cutting visas to average folks won’t fix global defense budgets—let’s fix diplomacy, not punish people.

No bucks, no buddies—if you won’t pay defense, you’re paying with fewer visas.

Using immigration as a weapon? Sorry, but solidarity isn’t a visa blacklist.

Tying visas to defense budgets mixes immigration with military budgets—a bit like juggling flaming swords.

Defense spending is a complex issue, but closing the door on immigrants? That’s just misplaced blame.

right-leaning 04/17/2025

Time to stop freeloading countries from crashing our immigration system while dodging defense bills.

moderate 04/17/2025

Enforcing NATO commitments is important, but let's not make immigration the collateral damage.
