Bill > HRes378

This resolution recognizes the severe humanitarian crisis in Cameroon, which involves five simultaneous conflicts including the Anglophone Crisis, Boko Haram insurgency, farmer-herder clashes, state-sanctioned violence, and conflict spillover from the Central African Republic. The resolution highlights the significant human rights violations, displacement of populations, and ongoing instability in the country, including over 4,000 civilians killed in the Anglophone Crisis, 250,000 people displaced by terrorist activities, and political suppression under President Paul Biya's long-standing regime. It calls on the Department of Homeland Security to establish a special humanitarian parole program for Cameroonian nationals seeking refuge in the United States, acknowledging the unique challenges faced by Black immigrants, including disproportionate detention, abuse, and discrimination. The resolution also points out the historical lack of humanitarian parole programs for African nations and urges the U.S. government to provide comprehensive support for Cameroonian immigrants, recognizing the urgent need to protect individuals fleeing violence, persecution, and potential human rights abuses in their home country.
