No Tax Dollars for the United Nation’s Immigration Invasion Act

119th Congress Introduced Mar 3, 2025

Summary

What This Bill Does

The No Tax Dollars for UN Immigration Invasion Act is an oversight bill focused on federal money flowing to United Nations migration and refugee entities and downstream nongovernmental recipients. It requires GAO to identify federal grant and loan assistance programs that funded the International Organization for Migration, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, the UN Relief and Works Agency, and nongovernmental organizations receiving related funds during fiscal years 2021 through 2025. GAO must report amounts, restrictions, and whether organizations should repay money, and must audit the State Department Refugee Travel Loan Program. The legal effect is investigative rather than an immediate funding cutoff.

Who Benefits and How

Congressional oversight committees benefit from a detailed GAO account of federal funds sent to UN migration and refugee organizations. Federal taxpayers benefit from a repayment assessment if GAO finds money should be returned. Immigration restriction advocates benefit from an official audit framing UN migration-related funding as a policy concern. State Department program managers benefit from clearer documentation of Refugee Travel Loan Program controls.

Who Bears the Burden and How

GAO auditors must collect program, recipient, restriction, and repayment information across multiple agencies. The State Department must provide Refugee Travel Loan Program records for audit review. UN migration and refugee organizations face scrutiny over federal funding and potential repayment findings. Nongovernmental recipient organizations must account for federal funds received through covered programs.

Key Provisions

  • Requires GAO to identify federal grants and loans funding IOM, UNHCR, UNRWA, and related nongovernmental organizations.
  • Covers fiscal years 2021 through 2025 and requires amounts, restrictions, and recipient information.
  • Requires GAO to assess whether covered organizations should repay federal money.
  • Requires an audit of the State Department Refugee Travel Loan Program.
