Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This Senate resolution requests the Secretary of State to provide Congress with a detailed report on Paraguay's human rights practices within 30 days of passage. The report must be prepared in collaboration with the State Department's democracy and human rights office and should cover alleged violations including torture, unlawful detention, enforced disappearances, and trafficking in persons, with particular focus on how Paraguay treats non-citizens who have been removed there by the United States government. The resolution also asks for information about U.S. efforts to promote human rights in Paraguay, assessments of whether U.S. security assistance could be misused, conditions in Paraguayan detention facilities, and details about any agreements or financial transactions between the two countries related to the rendition or removal of individuals to Paraguay. Additionally, the report must include information about specific individuals sent to Paraguay by the U.S. in 2025 and 2026, as well as documentation of all high-level meetings between the two governments during that period.
