Bill 118 HRES 1074, also known as the "Reaffirming the House of Representatives Support of a Two-State Solution" bill, was introduced in the US Congress to reaffirm the House's commitment to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The bill emphasizes the importance of a negotiated settlement that results in two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.
The bill highlights the longstanding bipartisan support for a two-state solution and calls on the US government to continue its efforts to facilitate negotiations between the two parties. It also reaffirms the House's support for Israel's right to exist as a secure and democratic state and for the Palestinian people's right to self-determination.
The bill acknowledges the challenges and obstacles to achieving a two-state solution, including ongoing violence, terrorism, and incitement. It calls on both Israel and the Palestinian Authority to take steps to build trust, promote peace, and prevent actions that undermine the prospects for a negotiated settlement.
Overall, Bill 118 HRES 1074 underscores the House of Representatives' commitment to a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through a two-state solution and urges all parties to work towards that goal.
