U.S. Engagement with WHO
The U.S. government has long been engaged with WHO in multiple ways including through financial support, participation in governance and diplomacy, and joint activities (see below). In 2020, after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trump administration suspended financial support and initiated a process to withdraw the U.S. from membership in the organization, marking a turning point in the U.S. relationship with WHO.3 Under the Biden administration, U.S. relations with the organization were re-established in January 2021, and U.S. funding to WHO was restored.4 The outcome of the upcoming U.S. presidential election between former President Trump and sitting President Biden later this year will likely have important consequences for whether the U.S. continues, or again withdraws from, participation in and support for WHO.
