Trump Administration Notifies Congress It Will Withdraw From WHO

The Trump administration formally notified Congress and the United Nations that the U.S. is withdrawing from the World Health Organization. President Donald Trump first said the U.S. would end funding to the WHO back in May. He's criticized the agency's response to the coronavirus pandemic and accused it of helping China cover up the outbreak. U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez confirmed that Congress had received formal notice and wrote on Twitter: "This won't protect American lives or interests — it leaves Americans sick & America alone."
