End U.N. Censorship Act

HR 417, the "End U.N. Censorship Act," prohibits federal funding for U.S. government departments or agencies to support the United Nations' iVerify tool or any effort labeling speech as misinformation. It blocks funds from being used to develop, implement, or contribute to the U.N. or other international organizations for initiatives that seek to categorize speech as "mal-, mis-, or disinformation." The bill mandates that any funds withheld under this provision be permanently rescinded and deposited into the U.S. Treasury, not repaid to the U.N. It directly affects federal agencies like the Department of State that manage international funding. The policy change is strictly a funding restriction, not a direct ban on U.N. activities.
