U.S. House Resolution 185 Regarding Jewish Refugees

Next Monday March 31, 2008, this Resolution is going for a full and final vote in the House of Representatives. Representative Jerald Nadler (D-NY) has introduced House Resolution 185, "Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the creation of refugee populations in the Middle East, North Africa, and the Persian Gulf region as a result of human rights violations," recognizing the struggle of Jewish refugees and encouraging the President (as well as those representing the United States) to push for balanced language when discussing the plight of refugees in the Middle East.
