What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "REPO Implementation Act of 2025," aims to improve how Russian sovereign assets are used for the benefit of Ukraine. It recognizes the Porto Declaration, which calls for repurposing frozen Russian assets to aid Ukraine. The Act allows the President to transfer Russian assets into the Ukraine Support Fund to place them into interest-bearing accounts. It directs the Secretary of the Treasury to invest these amounts in specific U.S. obligations. Additionally, the bill mandates quarterly obligations of no less than $250,000,000 from the fund to provide assistance to Ukraine. Finally, it establishes requirements for reporting on Russian assets held in various countries.
