S 4278 United States Senate · 119th Congress

PEACE Act

The PEACE Act prohibits the United States from providing any federal funds or privileges to the Board of Peace, a newly designated international organization created by a January 2026 executive order. This legislation asserts that Congress must explicitly authorize and appropriate money for any international organization before the U.S. can participate or spend funds on it. The bill requires the President and relevant federal agencies to submit detailed reports within 15 to 60 days explaining how any previously obligated funds for the Board of Peace will be used and assessing its progress in advancing sustainable peace in Gaza. Additionally, the act bars the Board of Peace and its officials from receiving any diplomatic immunities or exemptions from U.S. law. By cutting off funding and privileges, the bill seeks to ensure that future U.S. participation in international organizations follows established congressional oversight and authorization procedures.
