Recognizing the self-determination of Gibraltar to determine its status as a British Overseas Territory.

HRES 624 is a non-binding resolution recognizing Gibraltar's right to self-determination regarding its status as a British Overseas Territory. It highlights that Gibraltarians have consistently voted (99.6% in 1967, 98.48% in 2002) to remain under UK sovereignty and notes U.S. military reliance on Gibraltar's facilities since 1801, including during WWII and the 2011 Libya operation. The resolution states the House honors Gibraltar's security contributions and affirms that Gibraltarians' views must be central to any future discussions about its status. It does not change U.S. policy or impose new obligations, merely expressing the House's position.
