Require the executive branch to provide a report on human rights practices in Israel.

One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.

What’s happening with this effort?

S.Res. 797 sits in the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations as of June 23, 2026. The committee members must decide whether to hold a vote to advance the resolution, but most bills fail because committees choose not to act on them. A similar effort in the 118th Congress ended on January 15, 2024, when the Senate voted to table the motion to discharge the resolution.
