Stand with Israel Act
The Stand with Israel Act would prohibit U.S. federal funds from being used to pay the U.S. share of United Nations dues or contributions to UN programs, specialized agencies, or related entities if the UN or a UN entity expels, downgrades, or suspends Israel's membership or restricts Israel's full and equal participation as a member state. This means the U.S. government would withhold payments to the UN in cases where the UN takes such actions against Israel. The bill directly affects the Department of State and other federal agencies responsible for UN funding, requiring them to block these payments under specified conditions. It does not compel the UN to act but would prevent U.S. financial support in response to UN decisions impacting Israel's membership status.
