Referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
This resolution states that Russia’s actions in Ukraine constitute genocide and condemns those actions in clear terms . It urges the United States, working with allies in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union, to support Ukraine’s government to prevent further atrocities . In practice, this puts political pressure on U.S. foreign policy leaders and national security agencies to coordinate diplomacy, security assistance, and other support with allied nations . Communities following the war and Ukrainian Americans may see this as an official expression of solidarity and a call for continued support to Ukraine . The measure is focused on recognition and urging action; it does not create new programs or funding on its own . Its core purpose is to name the harm as genocide and rally coordinated international backing for Ukraine’s protection .
