To prohibit funds for the Palestinian-controlled West Bank or Gaza.
This bill prohibits U.S. federal funding for any assistance to the Palestinian-controlled West Bank or Gaza. It blocks all federal spending, including grants or aid programs, directed to these areas. The law applies broadly to all U.S. government agencies and programs, preventing the allocation or use of taxpayer funds for projects or support in these territories. It does not alter U.S. policy toward the territories themselves but restricts financial assistance.
