Plain-English Summary

The measure would formally acknowledge the Nakba, the displacement of Palestinian Arabs during the 1948 Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and recognize the rights of Palestinian refugees. It calls for U.S. recognition of Palestinian refugees' claims and their right to return to their former homes or receive compensation. The resolution affects U.S. foreign policy toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and how America addresses refugee populations in international affairs.
