Referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. (text: CR S1787-1788)
This Senate resolution expresses Congress's view that the United States should prioritize direct, country-to-country security partnerships over membership in multilateral organizations and alliances like NATO, the United Nations, and the World Health Organization. The resolution argues that bilateral agreements give the U.S. more negotiating leverage and better serve American interests, while claiming that multilateral institutions dilute U.S. power despite the substantial financial contributions the country makes to them. It calls on the U.S. government to encourage other nations to align with America as partners and to reduce support for multilateral security agreements that it believes work against U.S. interests. This is a nonbinding resolution expressing the Senate's position rather than enacting new law, and it does not involve specific funding or implementation timelines.
