H.Res. 1110 is a symbolic resolution expressing the House of Representatives' disapproval of killing dogs and cats for human consumption and calling on Japan to enact a nationwide ban on the practice. The resolution notes that the United States already banned such slaughter in 2018, and points to other developed Asian countries and major cities that have implemented similar bans. It emphasizes that the United States and Japan share democratic values and a commitment to animal welfare, citing growing support for animal protection initiatives among the Japanese public and lawmakers. The resolution does not propose any new U.S. laws or funding; instead, it serves as a statement of congressional values encouraging Japan to adopt animal protection policies while respecting cultural and religious practices. The measure was introduced in March 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
