Israeli-Palestinian Peace Enhancement Act of 2003

This bill establishes specific conditions that must be met before the United States officially recognizes a Palestinian state or provides it with certain types of foreign aid. It requires the President to certify that a new Palestinian government has been democratically elected, has renounced violence, and has taken active steps to dismantle terrorist organizations and their financing.

For citizens, this legislation defines the framework for U.S. diplomatic and financial involvement in the region, prioritizing security and counter-terrorism measures as prerequisites for formal statehood recognition. While it restricts general aid until these conditions are met, it also authorizes the President to provide targeted assistance intended to improve the economy and daily living conditions for Palestinians. Additionally, the bill directs the Secretary of State to organize international donor conferences to secure further economic support for the Palestinian people from other nations and organizations.
