Expressing support for the people of Russia, condemning the Kremlin's assault on human rights and the freedom of expression, and calling for Vladimir Putin to immediately release Alexey Navalny.

House Resolution 455 is a formal statement by the U.S. House of Representatives that officially condemns the Russian government’s suppression of free speech and its treatment of political activists. The resolution specifically calls for the immediate release of the late opposition leader Alexey Navalny and other political prisoners held by the Kremlin. While this measure does not create new laws or provide funding, it serves as an official diplomatic stance intended to pressure Russian authorities to uphold international human rights standards and support democratic movements within the country.
