PEACE Act

Introduced by Senator Mark Kelly, this legislation aims to restrict federal spending related to an entity known as the Board of Peace. The bill proposes that no government funds may be allocated or used for this board's operations or initiatives unless Congress passes specific legislation to authorize those expenditures. This would effectively prevent the executive branch or federal agencies from financing the board's activities through existing discretionary budgets or other non-specific funding pools.

If enacted, the bill would reinforce congressional oversight regarding how taxpayer dollars are spent on international or domestic peace-related initiatives. By requiring explicit authorization, the measure ensures that the Board of Peace cannot operate with federal financial support without a direct mandate and public debate in the legislative branch. The bill has been referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations for further consideration.
