Stop the ICC Act
This bill prohibits U.S. government cooperation with the International Criminal Court (ICC) and blocks funding for the Palestinian Authority under existing law if it engages with ICC investigations. It specifically blocks U.S. economic support funds for the Palestinian Authority when the ICC investigates Israeli officials, as referenced in the 2024 Appropriations Act. The bill also bans all federal funds from supporting ICC activities, including investigations, arrest warrants, or enforcement of rulings. It directly affects U.S. foreign aid programs and the Palestinian Authority's access to U.S. funding tied to ICC-related actions.
