 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service
This resolution commemorates the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Good Friday Agreement and celebrates the historic compromise as the beginning of a new era of peaceful political engagement in Northern Ireland. The resolution also supports full implementation of the agreement and subsequent agreements, including the Windsor Framework, and calls for action to resolve the injustices of past violence.

(Since the Good Friday Agreement, there has been an open border between the Republic of Ireland, an EU member state, and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. The Windsor Framework seeks to resolve challenges related to this border that arose after the United Kingdom left the European Union.)
