Bill overview
This House Resolution recognizes the ongoing Nakba, meaning ‘catastrophe,’ referring to the displacement and dispossession of Palestinians during Israel’s creation in 1948. It affirms the United States’ commitment to acknowledging Palestinian refugees’ rights, particularly their right of return as outlined in UN resolutions and international law. The resolution also condemns threats made by Israeli politicians regarding a ‘second Nakba’ and calls for the U.S. to end its support for actions contributing to the ongoing displacement and hardship of Palestinians.
