Plain-English Summary

This resolution expresses Congress's disapproval of Iran's government for systematically persecuting members of the Baha'i faith, a religious minority group in Iran that faces discrimination, imprisonment, and denial of basic rights. The measure calls out Iran for violating international human rights agreements that protect freedom of religion and basic civil liberties. The resolution is largely symbolic and aims to draw attention to the treatment of Baha'is rather than create new laws or sanctions.
