Hamid Karzai revealed that the Central Intelligence 
Agency regularly made cash payments to his office.

ernment responsive to popular concerns.

FILIATED WITH FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS.

ment or agency of the Federal Government or contractor

ment to an employee, officer, elected official, or represent-
ative of the government of a foreign country for the pur-
poses of bribery, coercion, or any activity that is illegal 
or undermines the rule of law or corrupts a public officer 
or the office such officer represents. 
(b) PROCEDURES.—The President shall establish 
procedures to carry out and enforce the prohibition under 
subsection (a).
