Recognizing and applauding President Trump for brokering a peace agreement between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and supporting diplomatic and economic efforts to achieve lasting peace in the region.
H. Res. 586 is a non-binding House resolution recognizing and applauding former President Trump for brokering a peace agreement between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and supporting ongoing diplomatic and economic efforts to achieve lasting regional peace. It lays out a series of policy recommendations and statements of U.S. support, including calls for African-led dialogues, an inclusive national dialogue in the DRC, and the cessation of state backing for non-state armed groups. The resolution also emphasizes efforts to improve governance and anti-corruption in the DRC, advance U.S.–DRC–Rwanda mineral trade initiatives to de-risk supply chains, strengthen supply-chain transparency for conflict minerals, and impose targeted sanctions and visa restrictions on corrupt actors and armed groups. While it outlines policy goals and requests actions by the President, it does not itself authorize new law or funding.
