Summary

The House Joint Resolution asks every Alabama state government entity to stop using the term “West Bank” and to refer to the territory as “Judea and Samaria” in its official communications. It reflects the state's historic support for a Jewish homeland and seeks to use what it describes as the historically accurate biblical names. The resolution does not create new duties, penalties, or funding requirements.
