The purpose of this legislation, known as "The Global Demining Protection Act," is to require the U.S. Department of State to restart important safety activities related to landmines and unexploded weapons. The main objectives are to enhance global security by clearing dangerous remnants of war, such as landmines and unexploded ordnance, and to safely destroy small arms that could be used in conflicts. Key provisions of the Act mandate that the Secretary of State must take necessary actions to quickly issue a waiver that allows for the immediate resumption of all related programs.
