This legislation directs the Secretary of State to submit a comprehensive report to Congress within 90 days of its enactment, focusing on United States funding provided to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). The report must identify the total amounts of funding from fiscal years 2020 through 2024, specifically requiring these amounts to be disaggregated by calendar month . Additionally, it mandates a detailed description of how such funds were spent by UNRWA, aiming to enhance transparency regarding past U.S. financial support. A significant provision of the bill is the immediate and permanent prohibition on all future federal funding to UNRWA. This ensures that no federal funds, whether directly or indirectly, can be used to provide financial support to the agency from the date of the bill's enactment.
