The US House Appropriations Committee, in its fiscal year 2027 report, has urged the U.S. Department of State to engage with the Nepalese government to ensure the protection of the rights of Tibetan refugees. It specifically called for renewed efforts to register all Tibetan refugees, many of whom have lacked legal recognition since the registration process was discontinued in 1995, according to a report by Phayul.
