A resolution requesting information on the Commonwealth of Dominica'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 Congress, within 30 days of adoption, a statement on the human rights practices of the Government of Dominica under section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. The statement would cover alleged abuses such as unlawful detention, torture, killings, and trafficking, including abuses involving non-citizens of Dominica whom the United States has removed to Dominica. It also asks what steps the U.S. took to assess how those people would be treated before removal, and whether U.S. security assistance could be used in their detention. The statement would also cover any agreements, payments, assurances, and meetings between the two governments in 2025 and 2026.
