Bill 119 HR 2643, also known as the "Haiti Gangs and Elites Accountability Act," aims to address the issue of criminal gangs and their connections to political and economic elites in Haiti.

These sanctions may include freezing assets, restricting travel, or other measures aimed at deterring further criminal behavior. Overall, the Haiti Gangs and Elites Accountability Act seeks to address the root causes of corruption and violence in Haiti by targeting those who enable and support criminal gangs.
