Senate unanimously passes bill to help Holocaust survivors

The Senate unanimously passes a bill to help Holocaust survivors and the families of victims obtain restitution or the return of Holocaust-era assets.

The measure requires the State Department to report on the progress of certain European countries toward the return of or restitution for wrongfully confiscated or transferred Holocaust-era assets, including property, art and other movable property.

It also requires a report specifically on progress on the resolution of claims for US citizen Holocaust survivors and family members.
