This bill would prohibit the United States from funding any United Nations organization or program that expels, downgrades, or suspends Israel's membership or otherwise prevents Israel from participating equally with other member nations. The legislation amends the United Nations Participation Act of 1945 and applies to all federal funding flowing to the UN and its specialized agencies, programs, and related entities. The bill does not specify new funding amounts or establish a timeline for implementation, but rather uses existing authorization mechanisms to enforce restrictions on how U.S. contributions to the UN can be used. The measure effectively gives Congress the power to cut off American financial support to any UN body that takes actions against Israel's full participation rights. The bill was introduced in August 2024 and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
