Without stability in the region. or a cessation to the violence. the number of innocent victims affected can only increase. House Resolution 354 emphasizes our close historical ties with the Liberian people by requiring the United States to take responsibility for how our foreign aid to Liberia is spent. It condemns the recent violence and calls on the Liberian Government to take action to resolve the conflict in a manner that permits the thousands of refugees safe passage back to their homes. The resolution urges the Liberian Government to allow international human rights organizations to make an impartial inquiry into human rights abuses. and take steps to prosecute individuals responsible for those crimes. Finally. it calls on President Bush to continue to suspend all U.S. military aid until these human rights concerns have been addressed.
