This Senate resolution requests that the Secretary of State provide detailed information about Guatemala's human rights practices within 30 days, prepared in coordination with the State Department's human rights office. The report must cover alleged human rights violations by Guatemala's government, including torture, arbitrary detention, enforced disappearances, and trafficking—with particular emphasis on non-citizens who have been removed to Guatemala by the U.S. government. The resolution also asks for information on what steps the U.S. has taken to promote human rights in Guatemala, assess conditions before removing individuals there, and prevent misuse of American security assistance. Additionally, the State Department must provide details on any agreements with Guatemala related to deportations, information about individuals sent there in 2025-2026, and documentation of U.S. efforts to protect people from unlawful removal to Guatemala. The resolution does not authorize any new funding or establish a specific timeline beyond the 30-day reporting requirement, but rather seeks transparency and oversight regarding U.S. deportation practices and Guatemala's treatment of foreign nationals.
