Prohibiting ICC Use of UN Facilities in the US

This bill aims to prevent the International Criminal Court (ICC) from using United Nations (UN) facilities located within the United States. This means the ICC would not be able to operate or maintain an office at the UN headquarters in New York. For US citizens, who are not subject to ICC jurisdiction, this act seeks to reinforce the legal sovereignty of the United States.
Key points
The act mandates negotiations to amend the UN Headquarters Agreement to prohibit ICC use of UN facilities in the US.
It emphasizes that the US has not ratified the Rome Statute and does not recognize ICC jurisdiction over US persons.
