AI Summary
This bill, titled the State Sovereignty Act of 2026, declares that the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations (UN), and the World Economic Forum (WEF) have no authority or jurisdiction within the state of West Virginia. It explicitly states that the state and its local government entities, such as counties and cities, cannot be forced to enforce or cooperate with any rules or mandates from these international organizations.
