A resolution requesting information on the Republic of Guinea-Bissau's human rights practices pursuant to section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961.

This Senate resolution asks the Secretary of State to send a statement on Guinea-Bissau's human rights practices to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee within 30 days after the resolution is adopted. The statement would be prepared with the State Department's human rights bureau and its Office of the Legal Adviser. It should cover reported human rights violations by Guinea-Bissau's government, including the treatment of non-citizens the United States has removed to Guinea-Bissau. It should also describe U.S. actions on human rights there, any agreements or payments between the two governments related to these removals, information on people sent to Guinea-Bissau in 2025 and 2026, and meetings between officials of the two governments.
