Suspending Reporting on Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty

This bill suspends the requirement for the US President to submit reports on compliance with the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty. This action reduces international transparency regarding conventional military deployments, signaling a move away from a major post-Cold War arms control agreement. While not directly impacting personal finances, this change affects national security policy and international stability.

Effective Period: The suspension is retroactive to January 1, 2022, and lasts until the US formally suspends the treaty's operation with all parties.
Consequence: This reduces international military transparency concerning conventional forces in Europe, impacting global security policy.
