Earlier this week, the U.S. House of Representatives approved H.Res. 100, Congresswoman Hilda Solis's resolution condemning gender-based violence in Guatemala and calling upon the Guatemalan government to take meaningful action to protect women and girls! You can read the press release on Solis's website.
Once again, Amnesty International greatly appreciates New Jersey Congressmen Andrews, Holt, Payne, Rothman, and Sires for cosponsoring this resolution. Thanks also to everyone who made calls to Congress about this issue!
Look for information about the corresponding Senate resolution in the near future!
