Stop Support for Hamas Act of 2023
This bill prohibits U.S. funding to the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and blocks economic support for the West Bank and Gaza until the Secretary of State certifies Hamas's infrastructure has been "verifiably dismantled." It modifies existing aid restrictions to require that assistance to the Palestinian Authority must not directly or indirectly benefit Hamas, and mandates reports to Congress on regional consultations. The bill also updates definitions to clarify that "foreign terrorist organization" includes entities designated under specific U.S. laws. These changes directly affect U.S. foreign aid programs, UNRWA operations, and the flow of assistance to Palestinian territories and the Palestinian Authority.
