Some payments are expected to exceed $100,000 per person, people familiar with a classified briefing said.
The plan will come in the form of new regulations called for under the HAVANA Act, which President Joe Biden signed into law last year. The law gave the secretary of state and the CIA the authority to determine who is eligible for the payments, agiven the wide disagreement over what should be considered legitimate, “confirmed” cases.
The State Department declined to comment on the briefing with senators. It said it would release more information about the compensation proposal “soon.” “The U.S. government continues to take all reports of AHI seriously,” a White House National Security Council spokesman said. “We remain committed to ensuring that individuals who report an AHI have access to medical care, and we will continue to rigorously investigate the cause of these incidents.”
