Srebrenica Genocide Remembrance Act of 2025

S 2184 designates July 11 as the National Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Srebrenica Genocide, requiring all U.S. federal, state, and local entities to recognize this day. The bill directs the U.S. government to honor the more than 8,000 Bosniak men and boys killed in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre by encouraging educational efforts, condemning genocide denial, and supporting reconciliation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It specifically references the International Criminal Tribunal’s recognition of the event as genocide and aims to counter ongoing denial by political leaders in Bosnia and Serbia. The bill does not alter existing laws or create new programs but establishes a formal day for remembrance and education.
