CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 
Recognizing the 61st anniversary of the independence of 
the State of Israel.

Whereas Israel has provided the opportunity for Jews from

Whereas the State of Ohio has charged Claudia C. Hoerig 
with aggravated murder in the case of State of Ohio v. 
Claudia C. Hoerig; 
Whereas Claudia C. Hoerig, a citizen of both Brazil and the 
United States, fled to Brazil to seek sanctuary and avoid 
justice; 
Whereas despite the Treaty of Extradition between the 
United States and Brazil (December 17, 1964), the 
latter’s constitution forbids extradition of its nationals 
and, therefore, legally protects Claudia C. Hoerig from 
extradition to the United States; 
Whereas if Brazilian criminals were to seek sanctuary in the 
United States, they would be extradited to Brazil as a 
matter of justice; 
Whereas the United States and Brazil should recognize and 
uphold an extradition treaty of equal reciprocity which al-
lows each country to seek justice; 
Whereas State of Ohio v. Claudia C. Hoerig is considered to 
be a strong case, the charge of aggravated murder is 
internationally recognized and the punishment, which is 
not capital punishment, is internationally respected; and 
Whereas Members of Congress have sought assistance from 
the Department of State, the Department of Justice, and 
numerous Brazilian officials: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that— 
(1) the alleged aggravated murder of United 
States Air Force Reserve Major Karl D. Hoerig is 
deserving of justice;

(2) the United States seeks the extradition of 
Claudia C. Hoerig and the full cooperation of Brazil; 
(3) Major Karl D. Hoerig’s family and friends 
deserve closure regarding the murder of their loved 
one; and 
(4) justice in the case of State of Ohio v. Clau-
dia C. Hoerig is important to maintain the tradition-
ally close cooperation and trust between the United 
States and Brazil, as evidenced by the fact that the 
United States is Brazil’s number one trading part-
ner and a major contributor of foreign aid.
