Condemning Iran's unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel.
This House resolution condemns Iran's April 13, 2024 attack on Israel, which involved over 350 drones and missiles launched directly from Iran. It affirms support for Israel's right to self-defense, commends international efforts (including U.S., U.K., French, and Jordanian intercepts) that minimized damage, and calls for enforcing U.S. sanctions against Iran to disrupt its missile programs and support for proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses congressional support without creating new laws or funding.

MODERATE
This is a procedural transition from the Introduced in House version to the Engrossed in House version of HRES 1143, which condemns Iran's April 13, 2024 drone and missile attack on Israel. No substantive policy language was changed; the differences are limited to formatting, the removal of the sponsor list and committee referral language (standard for engrossment), a date update from April 15 to April 18, and the addition of the Clerk's signature line.
TECHNICAL
Document header changed from 'IH' (Introduced in House) to 'EH' (Engrossed in House), reflecting progression through the legislative process.
The full list of sponsors (Mr. Kean and approximately 40 co-sponsors) and the committee referral language ('referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs') were removed, which is standard formatting for an engrossed resolution.
A Clerk's signature line (Cheryl L. Johnson, Clerk) was added at the end, standard for engrossed documents.
TIMELINE
Date updated from April 15, 2024 to April 18, 2024, reflecting when the resolution was engrossed.
