On November 14, 2017, members of Congress introduced a bill in the House to prevent U.S. tax dollars from paying for human rights violations against Palestinian children during the course of Israeli military detention.
The Promoting Human Rights by Ending Israeli Military Detention of Palestinian Children Act or H.R. 4391 requires the Secretary of State to certify annually that no funds obligated or expended in the previous year by the United States for assistance to Israel have been used to support the ill-treatment of Palestinian children detained by Israeli forces from the occupied West Bank. The legislation leaves financial assistance already committed in place.
Below is a list of organizations and institutions that have endorsed H.R. 4391.
