Condemning the Government of Ethiopia for actions that threaten regional stability, violate fundamental human rights, and undermine the strategic interests of the United States in the Horn of Africa.

Protection of taxpayer funds: The resolution states that United States taxpayer dollars should not support regimes or entities engaged in systemic human rights abuses or religious persecution, which is addressed in resolved clause (3). This is positive because it ensures that hardworking Americans' money is not used to back governments committing atrocities.

Advocacy for human rights and accountability: Resolved clauses (2), (4), and (8)(A) urge accountability for those responsible for gross violations of internationally recognized human rights, including war crimes, crimes against humanity, and acts of genocide, through tools like Global Magnitsky sanctions. This is beneficial as it seeks justice for victims and pushes for democratic reforms.

Defense of religious freedom: Resolved clause (6) and clause (8)(C) affirm the commitment of the United States to promoting religious freedom and defending vulnerable religious communities, including the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, and prioritize support for religious communities at risk. This helps protect people from religious persecution and violence.

Leveraging aid for peace: Clause (8)(B) urges the suspension of nonhumanitarian aid and security assistance to Ethiopia until verifiable progress is made toward ending hostilities, protecting religious institutions, and upholding international law. This provides a clear incentive for the Ethiopian Government to stop the violence and protect its people.
