Taylor Force Act

The Taylor Force Act is a US Congressional Act that aims to stop American economic aid to the Palestinian Authority (PA) until the PA ceases paying stipends to individuals who commit acts of terrorism and to the families of deceased terrorists. The Act was signed into law by US President Donald Trump on March 23, 2018, and cuts about a third of US foreign aid payments to the PA. The Act was named after Taylor Force, a US citizen who was murdered by a Palestinian terrorist in Israel in 2016, and was motivated by the practice of the Palestinian Authority paying stipends to terrorists and their families. The Act has resulted in the US stopping funding to the PA, including a cut of over $200 million in direct aid, as well as the stopping of aid to UNRWA and USAID to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.learn more on wikipedia
