Calling for the immediate release of Evan Gershkovich, a United States citizen and journalist, who was wrongfully detained by the Government of the Russian Federation in March 2023.

House Resolution 377 is a formal declaration by the House of Representatives calling for the immediate release of Evan Gershkovich, a Wall Street Journal reporter and U.S. citizen detained by the Russian government. The resolution also advocates for the release of Paul Whelan and other Americans wrongfully held in Russia, while urging U.S. officials to prioritize these cases in all diplomatic interactions with the Russian Federation. While this resolution does not create new law, it serves as an official statement of congressional intent to pressure foreign governments and directs the U.S. executive branch to use all available diplomatic tools to bring these citizens home.
