Urges Congress to provide aid to Haitian migrants.
Senate Resolution 91, introduced by Senator Renee Burgess, urges Congress to provide aid to Haitian migrants fleeing Haiti's political instability and humanitarian crises. The resolution highlights factors like gang violence, the 2021 earthquake, and food insecurity as drivers of migration, citing U.S. Coast Guard data on intercepted migrant vessels. It specifically calls for Congress to fund shelter, legal services, food aid, and medical assistance for Haitian migrants through frontline organizations. Copies of the resolution will be sent to Haitian officials, U.S. ambassadors, New Jersey's congressional delegation, and the governor.
