D. Diplomatic Pressure
The U.S. often uses these bills to:
Push for reforms
Signal dissatisfaction
Influence political behavior

The 2026 bill used that tool to pressure Nigeria over religious‑freedom issues. Killings affects all
Being named in such a bill — even without terrorism allegations — can reshape political dynamics, media narratives, and international relationships.
