Bill Summary
A BILL To codify Executive Order 14155 (relating to withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization).
AI Summary
This bill seeks to legally formalize Executive Order (EO) 14155, which involves withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO). Specifically, the bill would convert the executive order into statutory law, giving it the full force and effect of legislation passed by Congress. The World Health Organization is a specialized United Nations agency responsible for international public health, and this bill would effectively codify the United States' formal separation from the organization. By transforming the executive order into law, the bill would ensure that the withdrawal from the WHO is not simply an administrative action that could be easily reversed by a subsequent administration, but instead becomes a more permanent legal mandate. The bill is relatively brief, consisting of two sections: a short title provision naming it the "EO 14155 Act of 2025" and a substantive section that explicitly states the executive order shall have the force and effect of law.
