Representative Anna Paulina Luna’s foreign policy stances are strongly aligned with an “America First” platform, advocating for a 

non-interventionist approach, the prioritization of U.S. sovereignty, and a critical stance toward foreign aid. 

Key elements of her foreign policy views include:

• “America First” and Non-Interventionism: Luna is a vocal critic of what she calls “hawks and globalist elites” who push for U.S. intervention in foreign conflicts not directly related to American national interests. She believes the U.S. has become too involved in other nations’ policies and should focus on domestic issues, arguing that the primary duty of Congress members is to the American people, not those of other countries like Ukraine or Syria.
• Skepticism of Foreign Aid: She is an outspoken opponent of large foreign aid packages, particularly those combining assistance for multiple nations. She has publicly stated she would not support the large, bipartisan foreign aid bill passed by the Senate. In June 2025, she generated controversy by formally requesting $40 billion per year from the government of Ukraine as “budgetary support for our time” in a sarcastic response to their aid requests, highlighting her view that the U.S. is not Ukraine’s “piggy bank”. She has also pushed for a full audit of all U.S. spending in Ukraine.
• Strong Support for Israel: Luna is a firm ally of Israel. She has sponsored legislation like the “Stand With Israel Act” to defund the UN Human Rights Council until it formally condemns Hamas and has criticized the UN for perceived anti-Israel bias. However, she has also stated that Israel must respect peace deals and that American aid is not an unlimited commitment, taking a shot at Prime Minister Netanyahu in October 2025 for asserting total independence from U.S. input on Gaza policy.
• Focus on U.S. Military Strength: While she opposes foreign intervention, Luna believes “peace is preserved through unparalleled military strength and firm, decisive leadership”. She advocates for robust defense spending but wants to ensure the money is spent efficiently and on necessities, not what she describes as “woke ideologies” or waste.
• Combating China: She considers the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) a serious military and economic threat. Her foreign policy includes measures to counter China’s influence, such as prohibiting CCP members from purchasing American land.
• Government Transparency: As Chairwoman of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, Luna is involved in efforts related to government transparency, including declassifying records related to historical events like the JFK assassination, an issue that touches upon national security and intelligence operations.
• National Loyalty in Government: In November 2025, she proposed legislation to ban dual citizens from serving in Congress, emphasizing her belief that only individuals with sole American loyalty should make American laws. 

Her stances are rooted in a belief that the U.S. must prioritize its own citizens and borders, avoiding protracted conflicts and scrutinizing how American tax dollars are spent internationally. 

Representative Anna Paulina Luna’s key legislative priorities for the current 119th Congress (2025-2026) are focused on 

government accountability, border security, child protection, and energy independence. 

Her major legislative efforts and priorities include:

  • Banning Congressional Stock Trading: Luna is using legislative maneuvers like a discharge petition to force a floor vote on the “TRUST in Congress Act”, a bill that would prohibit members of Congress and their immediate family from trading individual stocks.
  • Declassifying Federal Secrets: As Chair of the House Oversight Task Force on declassification, she is pushing for the release of government records related to the JFK assassination and unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs).

• Border Security and Immigration

• Energy and Environment
  • Energy Independence: Her platform emphasizes increasing domestic oil and gas production to achieve energy independence.
  • Local Coastal Protection: She is working to secure federal funding and cut regulatory red tape for essential beach renourishment projects in Pinellas County, Florida, to protect against hurricane damage.
