Condemning Israeli settlement expansion, settler violence, and related human rights abuses in the West Bank, and calling for accountability and specific United States policy responses to deter further violations and protect the viability of a negotiated two-State solution.

This House resolution states the House's condemnation of Israeli settlement expansion, land confiscation, home demolitions, forced displacement, and settler violence in the West Bank. It calls on the Government of Israel to stop home demolitions, cancel land confiscations in Sebastia, halt approvals of new settlements, and remove unauthorized outposts. It urges the President and Secretary of State to impose targeted sanctions on people tied to serious human rights abuses in the West Bank, including Israeli ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, and to take measures against entities that support settlement expansion. It also supports ending U.S. double-taxation relief that benefits U.S. persons living in West Bank settlements, and calls for tying some U.S. security assistance to a freeze of construction in the E1 area. As a resolution, it expresses the House's position and does not itself change law.
