SRES 554 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution calling for the urgent delivery of sufficient humanitarian aid to address the needs of civilians in Gaza.

SRES 554 is a non-binding Senate resolution calling on the Biden administration to urgently increase humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza. It directly addresses the crisis affecting approximately 2.2 million civilians in Gaza, who face acute food insecurity, potential starvation, and collapsed infrastructure. The resolution demands specific actions: streamlining truck inspections, expanding aid access points, ensuring fuel for hospitals, improving safety for aid workers, and restoring water systems. It emphasizes the need for immediate, concrete steps to prevent starvation and disease in Gaza, where only 16 hospitals function and 96% of water is unsafe. As a symbolic resolution, it does not create new law but urges coordinated international action.
