Encourages the Secretary of State, foreign nations, and organizations such as the Red Cross and Israel's Jewish Agency to coordinate efforts to help reunite family members separated during the Holocaust.
This resolution urges the U.S. State Department, other countries, and organizations including the Red Cross and Israel's Jewish Agency to work together on finding and reuniting Holocaust survivors with family members they were separated from during World War II. It is a non-binding statement of congressional support for these reunification efforts.
This resolution does not substantively engage the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or U.S.-Israel military and political relations. It is classified as neutral because it addresses Holocaust survivor family tracing, a distinct humanitarian matter; Israel and the Jewish Agency are mentioned only as one of several institutional partners in a specific historical context.
