Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
H.Res. 795 is a congressional resolution condemning Hamas's October 7, 2023 attacks on Israel and calling for the immediate and unconditional surrender of Hamas and release of all hostages, including Americans. The resolution details the attacks' brutality, Hamas's designation as a terrorist organization, and subsequent regional conflicts involving Iranian-backed groups and Israel. The resolution also documents ongoing hostage negotiations, noting that some hostages have been released through cease-fire agreements (including 105 in November 2023 and 34 in January 2025), while 48 remain in captivity, including 2 Americans. Additionally, the resolution expresses concern about a global surge in antisemitism since October 7 and condemns recent attacks targeting Jewish individuals and Israeli embassy workers in the United States. Through its six operative clauses, the House reaffirms Israel's right to self-defense, commits to supporting humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians, and pledges to combat antisemitism globally and domestically. This is a symbolic resolution with no direct funding or implementation requirements.
