Rubio Targets ICC’s U.S. Jurisdiction | US News
Description
Senator Marco Rubio is launching a bold diplomatic offensive to dismantle the International Criminal Court, arguing it’s overreaching by targeting American troops, law enforcement, and officials — despite the U.S. never ratifying its founding treaty. He’s rallying global allies to reject the ICC’s jurisdiction, citing historical bipartisan opposition and past moves like Clinton’s refusal to ratify the treaty and a later law shielding Americans from ICC prosecution. With the State Department now coordinating a full-scale campaign — including cutting funding, isolating the court diplomatically, and even considering sanctions — Rubio’s push signals a serious, sustained effort to protect U.S. sovereignty and dismantle the ICC brick by brick.
