Bill Summary

AN ACT To impose sanctions with respect to the International Criminal Court engaged in any effort to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute any protected person of the United States and its allies.

AI Summary

This bill, the Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act, imposes sanctions on individuals and entities that aid the International Criminal Court (ICC) in any effort to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute "protected persons" of the United States and its allies. The bill defines "protected persons" as U.S. persons, including current or former members of the U.S. Armed Forces and government officials, as well as citizens or residents of U.S. allies that have not consented to ICC jurisdiction. The sanctions include blocking property and transactions, and denying entry into the United States. The bill also rescinds any existing appropriations for the ICC and prohibits future funding. The goal is to oppose the ICC's actions against the U.S. and its allies, which are viewed as illegitimate and a threat to national security.
