AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar the United Nations and its affiliated bodies from charging any tax, tariff, fee, or similar penalty on U.S. citizens or U.S. companies, unless it comes from an agreement that applies to the United States and that the Senate has approved for ratification. It would also bar federal funds from being used for U.S. contributions to the United Nations or its affiliated bodies that would be used to impose a global carbon tax, or for carrying out or enforcing such a tax. The bill defines a global carbon tax as a tax under a global fuel system that requires ship owners or operators to cut greenhouse gas emissions and charges set costs based on those emissions.
