Evidence

Congressman David Rouzer (R-NC-07), along with Congresswoman Dina Titus, introduced H. Res. 952, recognizing the self-determination of Gibraltar. The release says the resolution reaffirms respect for Gibraltar's right to self-determination and notes that under the United Nations Charter and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Gibraltar has the right to determine its own future as a territory.

Rouzer took a concrete legislative step favoring self-determination and invoking the UN Charter, which is consistent with a sovereignty-focused posture, though it is not a U.S.-specific anti-UN power measure.

Rouzer, along with Reps. Michael McCaul and August Pfluger, introduced H.R. 534, the CONTAINER Act. The release says the bill would give border states explicit authority to place temporary barriers on federal land to protect their communities and the entire United States, and states that the legislation would let states protect their sovereign borders.

Rouzer advanced a concrete border-sovereignty bill, showing effort to defend territorial control against federal constraint, but it does not directly target international bodies.

Rouzer and Rep. Sam Graves wrote to the Department of the Army and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers expressing concern about DOJ's lawsuit against Texas border security measures. The letter says the lawmakers were concerned about the federal government's effort to remove marine buoys installed to deter illegal crossings.

This is another concrete sovereignty-related action, but it is about resisting federal interference in state border enforcement rather than opposing international bodies.

The member page lists H.R. 1563, the No taxpayer funding for United Nations Human Rights Council Act, as a 118th Congress bill with the status 'Introduced' and 'Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.'

This provides official context that anti-UN-Human-Rights-Council legislation remained at introduction in the period relevant to Rouzer's service, indicating no completed enactment on that front in the cited record.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

The evidence shows Rouzer took sovereignty-related legislative and oversight actions, including border-sovereignty bills, correspondence opposing federal action against Texas border measures, and a Gibraltar self-determination resolution. However, these actions do not demonstrate that the promised outcome was delivered: defending U.S. sovereignty specifically by opposing transfer of power to international bodies. The clearest directly relevant anti-international-body measure cited, H.R. 1563 regarding the UN Human Rights Council, remained introduced and referred rather than enacted or otherwise implemented. Because there was serious legislative effort but no completed delivery of the promised outcome, the appropriate outcome is never with an effort badge.
