A resolution condemning the Government of Iran's state-sponsored persecution of the Baha'i minority and its continued violation of the International Covenants on Human Rights.

The resolution condemns the Government of Iran's state-sponsored persecution of the Baha'i minority and its ongoing violations of international human rights treaties, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. It highlights a long history of congressional condemnation and reports from international bodies detailing severe discrimination, arrests, executions, and denial of fundamental rights against Baha'is. These abuses include restrictions on education, employment, property rights, and religious practices, often amounting to crimes against humanity. Specifically, the resolution calls upon the Government of Iran to immediately release all individuals imprisoned solely due to their religion, particularly Baha'is. It further demands an end to state-sponsored hate propaganda and the reversal of discriminatory policies that deny Baha'is and other religious minorities equal access to higher education, livelihood, due process, and the free exercise of their faith. The resolution also urges the U.S. President and Secretary of State to actively condemn these human rights violations and to utilize existing authorities to impose sanctions on Iranian officials responsible for such abuses against the Baha'i community.
