Key Points

  • This resolution officially states that the House of Representatives considers Iran to be the world's biggest supporter of terrorism. It points to Iran's financial and military help for groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.
  • The proposal lists several reasons for this label, including the deaths of over 600 U.S. service members in Iraq and a 2024 attack in Jordan that killed three Americans. It also claims Iran has planned assassinations on U.S. soil.
  • The resolution highlights worries about Iran's nuclear program and its refusal to let international inspectors into certain sites. It notes that the United Nations brought back sanctions against Iran in September 2025 because of these issues.
  • As a simple resolution, this document expresses the official opinion of the House but does not change federal law or provide new funding. It serves as a formal statement of the government's position on foreign relations.
