Supporting the designation of October 30 as the "International Day of Political Prisoners".

HRES 843 is a symbolic resolution supporting the designation of October 30 as an "International Day of Political Prisoners" in the United States. It expresses the House's solidarity with global political prisoners - estimated at 1 million - including journalists, activists, and dissidents detained for political reasons without credible charges. The resolution urges the U.S. government to continue efforts to condemn political imprisonment, secure releases through diplomacy, and raise international awareness. It does not create new laws or directly affect specific individuals, as it is a non-binding expression of support for an existing international observance.
