Protecting Human Rights and Public Health in Foreign Assistance Act

This bill would cancel three State Department rules on foreign assistance that were published on January 27, 2026. The rules are titled "Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance," "Combating Discriminatory Equity Ideology in Foreign Assistance Rules," and "Combating Gender Ideology in Foreign Assistance." The bill says these rules would have no force or effect and would be treated as though they had never taken effect. It would also bar any federal department or agency from carrying out these rules or from proposing or enforcing successor or substantially similar rules or policies.
