HJR 113 Alabama House · 2024 Regular Session

United States Government, urges to disassociate with World Health Organization

This Alabama joint resolution urges state representatives to encourage the U.S. government to stop funding the World Health Organization and to reject new international health regulations. The bill argues that the organization is corrupt and unaccountable, citing past scandals and its leadership selection process as reasons for disassociation. It specifically calls for the cessation of taxpayer subsidies and the refusal to sign any treaties that would expand the WHO's authority over national sovereignty. The resolution does not have the power to directly cut federal funds but serves as a formal statement of the Alabama Legislature's position on the issue.
