AI Summary

This resolution requests the Secretary of State to submit a comprehensive report to congressional committees within 30 days regarding Costa Rica's human rights practices, specifically focusing on the treatment of non-Costa Rican individuals removed to Costa Rica by the United States Government. The report must include detailed information about potential human rights violations, such as arbitrary arrests, detention, torture, enforced disappearances, and trafficking, with particular attention to non-citizens. The resolution requires the State Department to assess the steps taken to promote human rights, discourage problematic practices, and evaluate the conditions and treatment these individuals might face in Costa Rica. Additionally, the report must provide information about any agreements, financial transactions, assurances, or actions related to the removal of individuals, including an assessment of the likelihood that U.S. security assistance could be used to support potentially harmful government activities. The resolution aims to ensure transparency and accountability in the treatment of non-citizens removed to Costa Rica and to protect their fundamental human rights.
