AI Summary

This bill prohibits the United States from providing any funding, whether mandatory or voluntary, to the United Nations Human Rights Council. Specifically, it requires the Secretary of State to withhold from the regular U.S. contribution to the United Nations budget an amount equal to the portion that would be allocated to support the Human Rights Council.
