This resolution condemns the practice of wrongfully detaining Americans in order to threaten American sovereignty and recognizes August 19, 2014, as a solemn remembrance of this national security threat. (The American journalist James Wright Foley was killed by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria [ISIS] on August 19, 2014.)
The resolution also states that the Senate (1) stands with all those who have been taken hostage or wrongfully detained, those who have been released, and their families and friends; (2) commends the personnel who have endeavored to recover Americans held captive abroad; (3) prioritizes the return of all innocent U.S. nationals targeted for kidnapping or wrongful detention abroad; and (4) supports efforts to ensure that the U.S. hostage enterprise has proper resources and is authorized to address evolving threats.
