WASHINGTON, D.C. – Yesterday, Rep. Tom Tiffany led 10 of his House colleagues in reintroducing the No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act. This legislation ensures that no future president can unilaterally commit the United States to a World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic treaty without the advice and consent of a two-thirds supermajority of the Senate. The bill’s reintroduction comes after the Biden-Harris administration’s prior openness to a WHO pandemic treaty, which fueled concerns about surrendering U.S. health policy to unelected globalists.
“While President Trump pulled the U.S. out of the corrupt WHO, this legislation blocks future administrations from surrendering our sovereignty to globalist schemers,” said Congressman Tiffany. “The WHO’s repeated failures in pandemic response show it cannot be trusted, and congressional oversight ensures no single administration can sign our rights away to the UN.”
“The WHO repeatedly failed the world in its response to the COVID-19 pandemic, spreading false information about the virus at the behest of the Chinese Communist Party,” said Chairman John Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on China. “The Trump administration was right to withdraw the United States’ membership from the WHO and refuse to sign its recent pandemic treaty. This important legislation will make sure no future president can unilaterally submit our nation to the WHO’s guidance because the organization is beholden to the CCP.”
Background:
The WHO’s mismanagement of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its dismissal of early warnings from Taiwan about the outbreak and its amplification of false claims from the Chinese Communist Party that there was “no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission,” have rightfully left Americans wary of this global institution. While the Trump administration did not sign the recent WHO pandemic treaty that was adopted by consensus at the 78th World Health Assembly on May 20, 2025, the Biden administration signaled they would have signed it. The legislation would provide more transparency in WHO agreements and a constitutional check on any future administration that wishes to sign away our sovereignty.
10 Members of Congress cosponsored Rep. Tiffany’s No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act, including: Reps. Michael Cloud (TX-27), Eli Crane (AZ-02), Dan Crenshaw (TX-02), Paul Gosar (AZ-09), Harriet Hageman (WY-At Large), John Moolenaar (MI-02), Ralph Norman (SC-05), Pete Stauber (MN-08), Claudia Tenney (NY-24), and Tony Wied (WI-08).
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has introduced companion legislation in the Senate. He is joined by 15 Senators, including: Senators John Barrasso (R-WY), Ted Budd (R-NC), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), John Hoeven (R-ND), James Lankford (R-OK), Mike Lee (R-UT), Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Rand Paul (R-KY), James Risch (R-ID), Rick Scott (R-FL), Thom Tillis (R-NC), and Tommy Tuberville (R-AL).
