HRES 1549: Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the People's Republic of China has engaged in the arbitrary or wrongful detention of American academics and has otherwise harmed the prospects for scientific collaboration and people-to-people exchanges between the United States and the People's Republic of China.

This House resolution formally condemns China's practice of detaining American academics and urges the U.S. government to prioritize securing their release, specifically highlighting the cases of Dr. Youlin Chen and Min Zin. It calls on the Secretary of State to consider raising the travel advisory level for China from Level 2 to Level 3 and to add a specific warning indicator regarding wrongful detention risks. Additionally, the bill requests a review of whether China meets the criteria for designation as a state sponsor of wrongful detention under existing federal law.

HRES 1543: Recommending that the House of Representatives find Leon D. Black in contempt of Congress for refusal to comply with subpoenas duly issued by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

This resolution recommends that the U.S. House of Representatives find Leon D. Black in contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with two subpoenas issued by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on June 26, 2026. The specific failures cited are his refusal to appear for a deposition and his failure to produce requested documents. If adopted, the Speaker of the House would certify these findings to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, enabling federal criminal prosecution under existing law. Additionally, the resolution directs the Speaker to take all other appropriate actions necessary to enforce the subpoenas.
