Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would bar federal funds from being used for any activity that supports or helps the United States invade, annex, buy, or otherwise acquire Greenland. It would also bar federal funds for any increase in U.S. military presence in Greenland, or in U.S. funding, assistance, or investment there, above the levels in place the day before the bill becomes law, adjusted for inflation. It would bar federal funds for any public or private influence campaign, open or secret, aimed at swaying the self-determination of the people of Greenland. These limits could be waived only by a later law that specifically authorizes the activity and explicitly cites this prohibition.
