Plain-English Summary

Any international agreement the World Health Organization negotiates about preparing for future pandemics would need approval from the U.S. Senate before the United States could join it, rather than allowing the President to approve it alone. This would give Congress a formal say in whether America commits to pandemic preparedness treaties with other countries. The requirement would apply specifically to WHO pandemic-related agreements and treaties.
