This legislation, known as the Export-Import Bank Reauthorization Act of 2026, aims to significantly extend the operational capabilities of the Export-Import Bank of the United States . Its primary purpose is to ensure the bank can continue its mission of supporting U.S. exports and job creation for an additional decade. Specifically, the bill amends the Export-Import Bank Act of 1945 to extend the bank's general authority from its current expiration in 2026 to 2036 . It also pushes back the expiration of the bank's aggregate loan, guarantee, and insurance authority from 2027 to 2037 . Furthermore, the legislation extends the critical Program on China and Transformational Exports from 2026 to 2036, reinforcing efforts to counter strategic competition and support emerging technologies.
