Calling for the continued support of Afghan women and girls after the drawdown of American troops.
Summary
House Resolution 547 expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the United States must remain committed to protecting the rights and safety of Afghan women and girls following the withdrawal of American military forces. The resolution formally condemns violence and systemic discrimination against women in Afghanistan and calls on the U.S. government to ensure that women and marginalized groups are included in any future peace negotiations. While this resolution does not create new laws or provide direct funding, it serves as an official policy statement urging the administration to use diplomatic and humanitarian tools to preserve the social and political gains made by Afghan women over the last two decades.
