Prohibits federal grants to states that arrest foreign officials in cooperation with the International Criminal Court.
The American Allies Protection Act prohibits the Attorney General from awarding, renewing, or extending federal grants to states, territories, the District of Columbia, or political subdivisions for a four-year period if they arrest, detain, or deprive the liberty of certain foreign officials based on International Criminal Court processes. The Attorney General may waive this prohibition if the President certifies it is essential to U.S. national security interests.
