Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution marks the third anniversary of the October 7, 2023, terrorist attacks on Israel, in which Hamas killed over 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, including American citizens. The resolution honors the victims and hostages while condemning Hamas's actions and the sexual violence committed during the attacks. It notes that following sustained U.S. diplomatic efforts, Israel and Hamas reached a phased agreement in October 2025 that halted fighting, freed all remaining hostages, and set conditions for ending the war, including the complete disarmament of Hamas and its exclusion from future governance in Gaza. The House resolution expresses support for Israel's right to self-defense, calls for full implementation of the ceasefire agreement, and demands increased humanitarian assistance and reconstruction for Gaza. Finally, it strongly condemns the rise in antisemitism in the United States and worldwide since the attacks, particularly in schools and on college campuses, and commits to combating this hatred. This is a non-binding resolution expressing the sense of Congress rather than enacting new laws or appropriating funds.
