The US government sanctioned Albanese in July 2025, calling her efforts to investigate Israeli human rights abuses "biased and malicious activities" and an attempt to malign the country through "lawfare". Albanese has said she will not stop her work, calling Trump's peace plan "entirely inadequate and inconsistent with international law". Support stories that matter.
