A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' support for the Iranian people's desire for a democratic, secular, and nonnuclear republic. It condemns the Iranian regime for terrorism, regional proxy wars, human rights abuses, and the violent suppression of internal protests. The text highlights past and ongoing atrocities, including the execution of political prisoners and the severe mistreatment of women, girls, and minorities. It acknowledges the Iranian opposition's Ten-Point Plan for the future of Iran, which promotes democratic values and free elections. Finally, the measure calls for holding the regime accountable through sanctions, supporting Iranian protesters, and protecting Iranian political refugees living in Albania.
