Congressman Mike Haridopolos Issues Statement Following The House’s Passage of the Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act

Congressman Mike Haridopolos (FL-08) issued the following statement after joining his colleagues in supporting H.R. 23, the  Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act, which passed the House of Representatives with bipartisan support. 

H.R. 23 is an important measure to safeguard American sovereignty and national security from politically motivated prosecutions. The bill prevents the International Criminal Court (ICC) from prosecuting U.S. citizens and officials, as well as our allies, under unjust charges.

“This bill sends a strong message to the international community that we will not allow the ICC or any unelected body to undermine our sovereignty or target our allies,” said Congressman Haridopolos. “The ICC’s charges against our ally Israel are a clear example of their politicized agenda. This bill is about preserving our rights and standing firm in defense of our nation and our allies. I am proud to stand with my colleagues in passing this legislation.”
