This resolution expresses strong support for the Iranian people who are courageously protesting for a free and democratic Iran, enduring nearly five decades of brutal repression under the Islamic Republic. It condemns the regime's violent suppression of peaceful demonstrators, including killings, mass arrests, and restrictions on internet access, and recognizes the Iranian people's right to dignity, democracy, and self-determination. The House of Representatives demands that the Iranian regime cease its threats and violence, release all political prisoners, and allow medical assistance to wounded protesters. Furthermore, it urges the immediate expansion of unrestricted internet access and civilian communication lines across Iran. The resolution also implores the United States government to coordinate with allies to implement concrete measures aimed at deterring further lethal violence against protesters.
