AI-generated summary, report an errorThis resolution states the House of Representatives' position that U.S. policy should officially recognize that the State of Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. It lists findings it relies on, including conclusions by a United Nations commission, genocide scholars, and human rights groups, along with casualty figures and statements by Israeli officials. It says the United States should stop transferring arms to Israel where they could be used in genocide, push Israel to follow International Court of Justice orders, and impose targeted sanctions on those involved. It also says the United States should cooperate with the International Criminal Court, lift U.S. sanctions related to that court, and fund the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA). As a resolution, it expresses the House's view and does not create law.
