Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
H.Res. 937 is a resolution condemning the Ethiopian government for ongoing violence, human rights abuses, and regional instability in the Horn of Africa. The resolution expresses concern about documented atrocities—including alleged war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide—that have killed thousands, displaced masses, and destabilized multiple regions including Amhara, Oromia, and Tigray, while also targeting religious institutions and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. The resolution calls on the Trump administration to impose Global Magnitsky sanctions on Ethiopian officials implicated in human rights violations, suspend nonhumanitarian aid and security assistance until conditions improve, and submit a formal determination to Congress on whether genocide has occurred. The measure also urges the State Department to use diplomatic and economic pressure to promote accountability, support international investigations, protect religious communities, and coordinate with international partners through the United Nations and African Union. This is a non-binding resolution expressing the House's position rather than legislation that creates new laws or programs.
