H.R. 1792 would prohibit the United States from providing any federal funding to three United Nations organizations: the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA). The bill also requires the Government Accountability Office to conduct a comprehensive study within 180 days to identify all federal funding these organizations have received since 2021, list which federal programs provided the money, and determine how much these organizations should repay the U.S. government. Additionally, the GAO must audit the State Department's Refugee Travel Loan Program. This legislation would affect refugee and migration assistance programs that currently receive U.S. contributions and would significantly alter how the United States participates in international humanitarian operations through the United Nations.
