A resolution supporting the efforts of the United States and international partners to facilitate a security environment that is conducive to holding free and fair elections in Haiti and promoting a durable return to democratic governance.

S. Res. 700 is a Senate resolution supporting U.S. and international efforts to create security conditions for free elections in Haiti through the UN-authorized Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission. It calls for the international community to provide financial, personnel, and logistical support to the MSS mission, while requiring the mission to comply with human rights standards, protect civilians, and consult vulnerable groups like women and children. The resolution also encourages additional U.S. and international aid to address Haiti’s humanitarian crisis, including contributions to the UN’s 2024 humanitarian appeal for 3.6 million vulnerable Haitians. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses the Senate’s position without creating new laws, focusing on coordinated support for Haiti’s democratic transition.
