HRES 943 United States House · 118th Congress

Calling for the annulment of the Monroe Doctrine and the development of a "New Good Neighbor" policy in order to foster improved relations and deeper, more effective cooperation between the United States and our Latin American and Caribbean neighbors.

This resolution calls on the U.S. government to formally end the Monroe Doctrine - a historical policy used to justify U.S. intervention in Latin America - and develop a new "Good Neighbor" policy focused on partnership. It specifically urges the State Department to declare the doctrine obsolete, end unilateral sanctions (like the Cuba embargo), reform international financial institutions, and support regional cooperation on issues like climate change and human rights. The resolution targets U.S. foreign policy mechanisms and aims to improve relations with Latin American and Caribbean nations by shifting from intervention to mutual respect. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses congressional intent but does not create new law.
