What the document says

“funds appropriated or otherwise made available by division F of this Act or other Acts making appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and related programs, including provisions of Acts providing supplemental appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and related programs, may not be used for a contribution, grant, or other payment to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency”

Making further consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes, Sec. 101

The funding limitation bars the use of funds appropriated by division F of this Act, or by other Acts making appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations and related programs, including supplemental appropriations Acts, for a contribution, grant or other payment to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. The bar applies notwithstanding any other provision of any other division of the Act and any other provision of law.

What the document actually says

“funds appropriated or otherwise made available by division F of this Act or other Acts making appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and related programs, including provisions of Acts providing supplemental appropriations for the Department of State, foreign operations, and related programs, may not be used for a contribution, grant, or other payment to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency”

Making further consolidated appropriations for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, and for other purposes, Sec. 101
That sentence, in plain words

Money for the State Department and for aid abroad may not go to one United Nations agency. That holds for money in this law and in other such laws.

What this is about

The agency named is the one that helps Palestinian refugees. A grant is money given for a purpose. The bar covers grants and other payments.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
