Condemning all acts of violence, oppression, and abuse against ethnic minorities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

This resolution (HRES 1025) expresses the U.S. House of Representatives' strong condemnation of violence, oppression, and abuse against ethnic minorities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), particularly in the eastern regions. It specifically highlights documented atrocities - including killings, sexual violence, forced displacement, and child soldier use - perpetrated by the DRC's military (FARDC), M23, and other armed groups. The resolution calls for accountability, urges the DRC government to protect displaced civilians, and demands adherence to international agreements like the June 2025 peace deal with Rwanda. As a non-binding resolution, it serves as a formal statement of U.S. concern and outlines specific actions for U.S. officials to address the crisis.
