Rep. Waxman And Congressional Leaders Write Letters To Prime Ministers Of Lithuania And Poland On Property Restitution
Rep. Waxman sent letters urging the Prime Ministers of Poland and Lithuania to work towards restoring any property taken by the Nazi Regime during the Holocaust. The letters call on the Polish and Lithuanian Governments to establish a timeline during the upcoming Prague Conference on Holocaust Assets to help return property and provide compensation to property owners and their heirs. Late last year, the U.S. House of Representatives unanimously supported a resolution, H.Res. 371, in favor of fair and complete compensation and restitution for lost property.
