The push to leave the council is reportedly being spearheaded by U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who has criticized the HRC and says it holds an "anti-Israel bias."

The United States has withdrawn from the United Nations Human Rights Council accusing it of a "chronic bias against Israel", a move that activists warned would make advancing human rights globally even more difficult.

Standing with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley slammed Russia, China, Cuba and Egypt for thwarting American efforts to reform the council.

They (US) are asking for reform.

Wow love the part that they say their decisions are not legally binding on anyone. Why bother with the Human rights council then? Its a meaningless department.
