Condemning the persecution of Christians in Muslim-majority countries.
HRES 594 is a non-binding resolution passed by the U.S. House of Representatives condemning the persecution of Christians in Muslim-majority countries. It cites specific examples like violence against Christians in Nigeria (including attacks on Palm Sunday and Yelewata), restrictions in Egypt (such as limited worship spaces and forced conversions), and blasphemy-related violence in Pakistan. The resolution urges the President to prioritize protecting persecuted Christians in U.S. foreign policy, including through diplomatic engagement and trade negotiations with affected countries. As a symbolic resolution, it does not create new laws or directly affect any individuals, but aims to influence U.S. diplomatic efforts.
