Summary:
Immediately reduce USG direct funding of the ITU from $11M to $22K, withdraw any additional indirect financial support to the ITU, and reduce delegations to future ITU meetings to no more than one USG representative, tasked primarily with communicating a US position that the ITU’s only legitimate area of authority is radiocommunications.
Reallocate all headcount and travel savings to participation in and support of Internet governance meetings. Direct 50% of ITU contribution savings to support of multi-stakeholder Internet governance efforts through grants supporting meetings and research, 40% to international diplomatic outreach promoting the multi-stakeholder Internet governance model, and 10% to domestic outreach.
