A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION encouraging President Donald Trump and the United States Congress to end the Syrian genocide of Christians and Alawites.
Kentucky's legislature passed SCR 248, a non-binding concurrent resolution urging President Trump and Congress to address violence against religious minorities in Syria. The resolution references reported killings of Alawites and Christians following the fall of the Assad regime (documented in March 2025), including a massacre in Latakia and displacement of over 11,000 Syrians. It does not create new laws or funding but formally encourages federal action through diplomatic channels. The bill was introduced and adopted in Kentucky's legislature in March 2025, with no policy mechanisms beyond symbolic advocacy.
