FARA

FARA, or the Foreign Agents Registration Act, is a U.S. law requiring individuals or organizations acting on behalf of foreign governments or entities to reveal their relationships and activities. Its purpose is to promote transparency by ensuring the U.S. government and the public know when foreign interests are influencing policies, public opinion, or decision-making. This includes lobbying, public relations, or other efforts that could impact U.S. affairs. FARA helps prevent covert foreign influence and ensures that foreign agents are accountable for their actions within the United States.
