Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives to condemn the atrocities, war crimes, and crimes against humanity being perpetrated against Ukrainian children by the Government of Russia.
HRES 1443 is a non-binding resolution condemning Russia's attacks on Ukrainian children during its invasion, including the bombing of a Mariupol theater sheltering children and a maternity ward. It cites specific incidents like the targeting of schools, hospitals, and the deportation of over 260,000 children, referencing reports of war crimes against minors. The resolution demands an investigation into these atrocities and urges the President to mitigate harm through actions like sanctions under the Global Magnitsky Act. As a resolution, it does not create new law but directs the executive branch to address the humanitarian crisis affecting Ukrainian children.
