This executive order from February 4, 2025, outlines the withdrawal of the United States from the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) and a review of its membership in UNESCO, citing concerns about anti-Semitism, anti-Israel bias, and failure to reform.

The order directs a comprehensive review of all US involvement in international organizations to identify those contrary to US interests. Finally, the order mandates notification to the UN of these actions and funding cuts.
