An original concurrent resolution expressing the sense of Congress that the President should support free and fair elections and respect for democracy in Haiti.

Summary

Condemns the electoral fraud being perpetrated against the Haitian people and the continuing interruption of democratic institutions in Haiti. Calls on the Government of Haiti: (1) to end its manipulation of the electoral process and to reverse the fraudulent results announced by the remaining members of the Provisional Electoral Council; and (2) to immediately engage in a thorough and verifiable process to review all reported irregularities and allegations of fraud and authenticate the true results of the election so that a legitimate, democratically-elected National Assembly and local councils can be seated. Urges the Organization of American States (OAS) to consider joint actions by its members states to bring about a return to democracy in Haiti. Calls on the President to: (1) terminate U.S. assistance to the Provisional Electoral Council; (2) review and modify U.S. political, economic, and law enforcement relations with Haiti if Haitian authorities persist in their current path; and (2) work with other democracies in the Western Hemisphere and elsewhere toward a restoration of democracy in Haiti.
