Recognizing November 30, 2025, as "Yom Haplitim" or "Jewish Refugee Day".

HRES 904 is a symbolic resolution recognizing November 30, 2025, as "Yom Haplitim" or "Jewish Refugee Day." It commemorates the historical displacement of approximately 900,000 Jewish people from Arab-majority countries after World War II and the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. The resolution calls for educational efforts to teach this history, condemns antisemitism, and supports safeguarding Jewish communities globally. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws or policies but formally acknowledges this historical event.
