Honoring the life and legacy of Carl Lutz.

House Resolution 297 is a commemorative measure intended to officially recognize the life and humanitarian efforts of Carl Lutz, a Swiss diplomat who saved over 50,000 Jewish people during the Holocaust. By formally honoring his legacy, the resolution seeks to promote historical awareness of his courage and the importance of diplomatic intervention in protecting human rights. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws or allocate federal funding, but serves as a formal statement of national respect for Lutz’s moral leadership during World War II.
