threaten other states or peoples, or to continue to oppress his own people; Whereas the United Nations Security Council, through the Oilfor-Food program, allowed for humanitarian goods to flow to Iraq while maintaining the sanctions regime and control over Iraq’s oil revenue; Whereas the Coalition that liberated Iraq poses no risk to other states or peoples, and there is no reason to believe that the people of Iraq, liberated from the tyrant Saddam Hussein, pose such a risk; Whereas the Coalition is providing for the humanitarian needs of the Iraqi people; Whereas the people of Iraq are now ready to rebuild their nation after over 30 years of tyranny; Whereas the sanctions established by United Nations Security Council Resolutions 661 and 687 prohibit the importation of goods necessary for the Iraqi people to rebuild their country; Whereas these sanctions restrict the trade of Iraqi goods, by and on behalf of the Iraqi people, necessary to allow expeditious rebuilding of Iraq and recovery from the tyranny of Saddam Hussein; and Whereas continuing the sanctions imposed on the government of Saddam Hussein punishes the people of Iraq for the actions of a brutal tyrant who no longer rules them: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that— (1) the United Nations should immediately act to lift the economic sanctions imposed by United Nations Security Council Resolutions 661 and 687; and (2) member states of the United Nations should allow and encourage their nationals to trade with Iraq.
