A Senate resolution is the Senate speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the Senate agrees to it, it is officially the Senate's word; it is not a law, so the House and the President have no part in it.
What this bill would do
This resolution commemorates the anniversaries of the 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy and the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires. It expresses sympathy for the victims and their families who are still waiting for justice. The resolution condemns both terrorist attacks and expresses concern over the decades-long delay in resolving these cases. It urges the President of the United States to provide technical assistance to Argentina to support ongoing investigations. Finally, it calls for the prosecution of those responsible for the attacks and the murder of prosecutor Alberto Nisman.
