DEFUND Act of 2025

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill would require the President to end the United States' membership in the United Nations and all organizations officially connected to it, including the World Health Organization. It would stop all U.S. funding and payments to the U.N., end U.S. involvement in U.N. peacekeeping missions, and remove the special legal protections (diplomatic immunity) that U.N. workers and foreign diplomats at the U.N. currently have. The bill would also undo several existing laws that set up the U.S. relationship with the U.N. in the first place. If the U.S. ever wanted to rejoin the U.N. or any of its connected organizations, the Senate would have to approve it, and any agreement to rejoin would have to allow the U.S. the right to withdraw.
