To require a report on expanding the scope of jurisdiction under the terrorism exception to the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act in cases where a terrorist attack resulted in injury but no death.

Sponsor: Rep. Taylor, David J. (R-OH)Introduced Sep 17, 2026
✆
In plain English

Rep. David Taylor (R-OH) introduced this bill requiring the federal government to study whether U.S. courts should have jurisdiction to hear cases against foreign governments in situations where a terrorist attack caused injuries but no deaths. Currently, the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act allows Americans to sue foreign governments in U.S. courts only for terrorist attacks that result in death; this bill directs a report examining whether that exception should be expanded to include attacks causing injury without fatalities. The bill was referred to the Judiciary Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee.
