The Countering Wrongful Detention Act of 2024 establishes new tools for the U.S. government to deter and respond to the unlawful or wrongful detention of American citizens by foreign state and non-state actors. The bill creates a designation process for countries that engage in or support such detention, requires the State Department to develop strategies and travel advisories to reduce detention risks, and establishes an advisory council and enhanced processes to support hostages and wrongfully detained Americans. It also mandates briefings to Congress on specific countries of concern and directs reviews of existing sanctions and enforcement authorities.
