WHO is Accountable Act

S 774, the "WHO is Accountable Act," prohibits U.S. federal funds from being used to seek U.S. membership in or contribute to the World Health Organization (WHO) until the Secretary of State certifies the WHO meets eight specific conditions. These conditions require the WHO to adopt reforms ensuring humanitarian aid isn't politicized, end perceived Chinese Communist Party influence, address pandemic response transparency, grant Taiwan observer status, stop diverting supplies to certain countries, improve transparency, cease funding for issues like gender-affirming care, climate change, and abortion access, and agree that WHO directives won't bind U.S. citizens. The bill directly affects all U.S. federal departments and agencies that manage funding for international organizations. This provision halts U.S. financial support to the WHO until these conditions are met, pending congressional certification.
