House would condemn Christian persecution in Nigeria, support President Trump's actions to protect them.
This resolution would have the U.S. House of Representatives condemn the targeted killing of Christians in Nigeria and the Nigerian government's failure to protect them. It would also express support for President Donald J. Trump to take strong action to address this threat. The resolution calls on the U.S. government to use diplomatic, economic, and security tools to pressure Nigeria to end violence, protect Christians, and repeal blasphemy laws.
Today, Nigeria faces extreme violence against Christians, with its government reportedly failing to respond to attacks and enforcing blasphemy laws. The U.S. government, under the Biden administration, removed Nigeria from a list of countries with severe religious freedom violations. If this resolution passes, the U.S. House would formally condemn these actions. It would also call for the U.S. government to use its tools to pressure Nigeria to protect Christians, repeal blasphemy laws, and release prisoners of faith. This could potentially lead to stronger U.S. action and international coordination.
