Move the ICC Out of NYC Act of 2025

Prohibit ICC use of UN facilities

This bill would define the terms "International Criminal Court" and "Rome Statute" by reference to section 2013 of the American Service-Members' Protection Act (22 U.S.C. 7432). It would also define the "United Nations Headquarters Agreement" as the 1947 Lake Success agreement that entered into force on November 21, 1947. Not later than 30 days after the opening date of the 80th U.N. General Assembly, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations would be required to seek negotiations for a supplemental agreement. The supplemental agreement the Ambassador would seek would prohibit the U.N. from hosting, leasing, or otherwise allowing the International Criminal Court to use U.N. facilities inside the United States. The bill would only require the Ambassador to open talks and would not itself appropriate funds or change existing treaty text.
