HRES 1087 United States House · 118th Congress

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that any attempt by the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to remain in office beyond May 7, 2024, shall warrant nonrecognition on the part of the United States.

HRES 1087 is a non-binding resolution expressing the U.S. House of Representatives' position that the United States should not recognize Vladimir Putin as Russia's president if he attempts to remain in office beyond May 7, 2024. It states that the 2020 Russian constitutional amendments (which waived term limits for Putin) were illegitimate due to a flawed referendum process marked by alleged fraud and violations of international norms. The resolution does not create new law but formally declares the House's stance on Putin's potential extended rule, citing concerns about the referendum's legitimacy and Russia's actions in Ukraine. It directly addresses U.S. diplomatic recognition policy toward Russia's leadership.
