Rep. Jimmy Gomez Introduces Bill to Block Any U.S. Effort to Invade, Annex or Purchase Greenland

(January 13, 2026)

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Jimmy Gomez (CA-34) introduced the Greenland Sovereignty Protection Act, legislation that would prohibit federal funds from facilitating the invasion, annexation, or any other form of acquisition of Greenland by the United States.

The bill comes amid President Donald Trump suggesting the United States could seek to assert control over Greenland, a self-governing territory of Denmark and a home to more than 50,000 people.
