Bill > HR59

This resolution, passed by the House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, expresses strong support for the Iranian people protesting against their oppressive regime. It acknowledges that these protests, initially sparked by economic hardship including inflation and a devalued currency (the Iranian Rial), have evolved into a broader rejection of the theocratic dictatorship. The resolution condemns the Iranian regime's violent crackdown on protesters, which has reportedly involved firing on unarmed civilians, using foreign mercenaries, and implementing internet blackouts to hide their actions, with thousands of civilians allegedly killed. The Kentucky House of Representatives stands in solidarity with the protesters, offering condolences to victims and their families, and affirms its unwavering support for the Iranian people's desire for freedom, dignity, and self-determination.
