We welcome the introduction of H.R. 10461 by Congressman Chris Smith to improve the ability of U.S. citizens and businesses to travel to and invest in Somaliland.
This builds on a growing congressional effort to align U.S. policy with reality: @RepJohnRose’s H.R. 7993 is working to open U.S. financial systems to Somaliland. @RepMoolenaar, Rep. Smith & @SenTedCruz have called for a separate travel advisory — because Somaliland is not Somalia.
Together, these efforts reflect the truth: Somaliland is safe, stable, and secure.
