EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Chip Roy Will Introduce Legislation To Defund Biden’s Plan To Rejoin UN Human Rights Council
Republican Texas Rep. Chip Roy will introduce legislation Thursday which would defund President Joe Biden’s plan to contribute to the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC).
Roy was joined by Republican Reps. Tom Tiffany of Wisconsin, Duncan of South Carolina and Brian Babin of Texas as the original cosponsors on the bill which would prohibit contributions to the UNHRC, and for other purposes. Roy told the Daily Caller that the organization helps cruel regimes around the world and has continued to attack Israel, a close ally of the U.S. The Trump administration withdrew from the UNHRC and defunded the group in June of 2018.
“The United Nations Human Rights Council is a morally bankrupt organization that bolsters some of the world’s most oppressive regimes while systematically attacking our great friend and ally, the State of Israel. By rejoining the UNHRC, President Biden is granting legitimacy to an organization that shields some of the world’s worst human rights abusers from accountability,†Roy told the Daily Caller.
