Prohibition on United Nations Taxation Act of 2003

H.R. 1206, the Prohibition on United Nations Taxation Act of 2003, seeks to prevent international organizations from imposing taxes or fees on American citizens. The bill would prohibit the United States from providing funding to the United Nations (UN) or the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) if those organizations attempt to tax U.S. persons, borrow money from international financial institutions, or promote policies that allow foreign governments to tax income earned within the United States. To ensure compliance, the President would be required to certify to Congress that these organizations are not developing or promoting any such revenue-raising proposals before any U.S. funds can be released to them.
