AI Summary

This bill memorializes the Massachusetts delegation to Congress and the United States Congress on the need for a Syrian War Crimes Tribunal at the International Criminal Court. The bill recognizes the humanitarian catastrophe in Syria, where tens of thousands have been brutally killed and millions have become refugees, and calls on Congress to seek actions that will lead to the convening of such a tribunal so that war crimes and crimes against humanity can be investigated and the individuals responsible can be brought to justice through arrest and proper trial. The bill also supports publicity and dissemination of sound information to help accomplish these goals.
