The PROTECT USA Act of 2026 seeks to prevent U.S. companies integral to national interests from complying with foreign sustainability due diligence regulations.

The President can deny petitions for exemption if it conflicts with U.S. national interests. The Act also prevents U.S. courts from recognizing foreign court judgments related to these regulations.
