No U.S. Funding for UNIFIL Act
To prohibit funding for the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon beginning on October 1, 2027, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB9020, aims to stop funding for the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) starting October 1, 2027. UNIFIL is a peacekeeping force in Lebanon, and the bill's goal is to prohibit U.S. financial support for this force after the specified date.
This change would primarily affect the U.S. government and the UNIFIL force. If passed, the U.S. would no longer contribute funds to UNIFIL's operations from October 1, 2027, potentially impacting the peacekeeping activities in Lebanon.
HB9020 was introduced on May 22, 2026, and has been referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Committee on Armed Services for further review. This means experts in these areas will examine the bill and decide the next steps in the legislative process.
