Official summary

Version 00 · Introduced in House · May 31, 2022

This concurrent resolution expresses the sense of Congress that

those individuals who are responsible for the sexual war crimes on April 14, 1999, against U.S. citizen Vasfije Krasniqi Goodman in Kosovo should be brought to justice as per U.N. Security Council Resolutions 1820 and 2467,

it is reprehensible that no individuals have been found guilty for their sexual war crimes against Ms. Krasniqi Goodman, and

progress in resolving Ms. Krasniqi Goodman's case and those involving other survivors of sexual violence during the Kosovo war should remain an important bilateral priority between the United States and the government of Serbia.
