National Security Starts in the States.
State Shield equips governors, attorneys general, legislators, and other state leaders with the policies and tools to defend America from the Chinese Communist Party, Sharia law, North Korea, and other hostile foreign adversaries – one state at a time.
Educate
Give state leaders the research and information they need to recognize emerging foreign threats.
Develop
Create model policies and legislative solutions designed for action at the state level.
Act
Work directly with policymakers to advance, implement, and strengthen reforms that protect their states.
National security is no longer exclusively a federal responsibility.
Hostile foreign powers are targeting state and local governments, universities, critical infrastructure, sensitive data, supply chains, American land, and political institutions.
Washington cannot secure every state database, university research agreement, procurement contract, property deed, pension investment, or drone fleet.
States need their own defenses. State Shield works directly with state leaders to build them.

HHS & State Department: The United States Rejects Amendments to International Health
WASHINGTON—JULY 18, 2025—U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Secretary of State Marco Rubio today issued a Joint Statement of formal rejection by the United States of the 2024 International Heath Regulations (IHR) Amendments by the World Health Organization (WHO).
The amended IHR would give the WHO the ability to order global lockdowns, travel restrictions, or any other measures it sees fit to respond to nebulous “potential public health risks.” These regulations are set to become binding if not rejected by July 19, 2025, regardless of the United States’ withdrawal from the WHO.
“The proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations open the door to the kind of narrative management, propaganda, and censorship that we saw during the COVID pandemic,” Secretary Kennedy said. “The United States can cooperate with other nations without jeopardizing our civil liberties, without undermining our Constitution, and without ceding away America’s treasured sovereignty.”
Secretary Kennedy also released a video explaining the action to the American people.
