Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Security Sector Governance Compacts Act requires the Secretary of State to develop metrics and indicators to assess the quality of security sector governance in U.S. security partner countries, creating a "Security Sector Governance Index" that measures corruption, civilian oversight, military political involvement, and human rights records. Based on this index, the bill establishes a tiered ranking system (tier one through four) for partner countries and restricts the types of security assistance each tier may receive, with lower-tier countries limited to educational and institution-building aid, while higher-tier countries gain access to lethal equipment and advanced military cooperation. The bill requires annual assessments and updates to country designations and mandates congressional reporting on these assessments.
