Rep. Chip Roy on US Exit from WHO: 'RIPE WITH FRAUD'

US Withdrawal from the World Health Organization

• 🇺🇸 The United States is officially withdrawing from the World Health Organization (WHO), a decision announced by President Trump.

Criticisms of International Organizations

Broader Political Context and Legislation

Future of International Engagement
