Republican lawmakers in both the Senate and House are introducing resolutions calling for the United States to formally denounce the persecution of Christians in countries where Muslims form the majority. The measures urge the president to make the protection of persecuted Christians a priority in foreign policy, emphasizing diplomatic engagement and efforts to stabilize regions such as the Middle East. Lawmakers highlighted ongoing violence against Christians, citing thousands killed and millions displaced, particularly in Nigeria and Syria. The resolutions have garnered support from several Republican representatives, who argue that the United States must not remain silent in the face of religious persecution abroad.
