A resolution requesting information on the Democratic Republic of the Congo'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 the Democratic Republic of the Congo'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 request is made under section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. The statement should cover alleged human rights violations by the Congolese government, including the treatment of non-Congolese people the United States has removed to that country. It should also describe U.S. steps to promote human rights there, any agreements, payments, or assurances between the two governments about these removals, information on people sent there in 2025 and 2026, and the risk that U.S. security assistance could support detention or transfer of these people.
