In light of ongoing global uncertainties, the resolution reaffirms Tennessee's commitment to its friendship with Israel and expresses unwavering support for the nation. It concludes with a directive to send an enrolled copy of the resolution to the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., for further transmission to the appropriate authorities in Israel, thereby formalizing Tennessee's stance and solidarity with the country.
