Bill Caption

Affirming the historical connection of the Jewish people to Jerusalem and condemning efforts of UNESCO to deny Judaism's historical, religious, and cultural ties to Jerusalem.

Bill Analysis

HR 16 supports the Nation of Israel's claim to the city of Jerusalem and the historical connection between the city and the Jewish people. HR 16 also condemns the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Culture Organization for passing resolutions that condemn Israel and its claims over Jerusalem. 

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action does not generally weigh in on nonbinding resolutions that do not directly impact Texas citizens. For this reason we remain neutral on HR 16.
