What it does

The Justice for Shireen Act would require the FBI Director and Secretary of State, in consultation with other federal officials, to submit an unclassified report to Congress within 30 days of enactment detailing the circumstances surrounding the death of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. The report must identify individuals or entities responsible for her death, assess any U.S. defense materials, funds, or services implicated in the incident, and include relevant unredacted reports as attachments. The report would be made publicly available on the State Department’s website at the same time it is submitted to Congress.
