Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Bob Menendez (D-NJ) today introduced a bipartisan Senate resolution remembering the 25th Anniversary of the bombing of the Argentine Israelite Mutual Association (AMIA) Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The deadliest terrorist attack in Argentina’s history, the bombing occurred on July 18, 1994 and resulted in the death of 85 people and more than 300 people who were wounded.
“Twenty-five years ago, Iran-backed Hezbollah terrorists launched a horrific attack against Argentina’s Jewish community that killed 85 people and injured hundreds,” Rubio said. “Today, we honor the victims and the survivors of the Argentine Israeli Mutual Association (AMIA) car bombing in Buenos Aires, and recommit to helping the Government of Argentina seek justice for the victims and their families.”
“25 years after the AMIA tragedy, its perpetrators have not been held to account, and its victims have not been delivered justice,” Menendez said. “It is critical that the U.S. recommit to helping the Government of Argentina in their investigation. The Argentinian people have waited long enough for answers.”
A joint U.S.-Argentinian investigation concluded that Hezbollah operatives—supported by Iran—were responsible for the bombing. The resolution calls on President Donald Trump to monitor Iran’s activities in the Western Hemisphere, and to assist the Government of Argentina in supporting its ongoing investigation into the death of Argentine prosecutor Alberto Nisman, who was assassinated while investigating the attack.
The resolution is cosponsored by Senators Ben Cardin (D-MD), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Tim Kaine (D-VA), and Todd Young (R-IN).
Rubio is a Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.

Washington, D.C. — Los senadores estadounidenses Marco Rubio (R-FL) y Bob Menendez (D-NJ) presentaron hoy una resolución bipartidista en el senado conmemorando el 25 avo aniversario del atentado a la Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA) en Buenos Aires, Argentina. El bombardeo fue el atentado terrorista más letal en la historia de Argentina, ocurrió el 18 de julio de 1994 y causó la muerte de 85 personas y más de 300 heridos.
“Hace veinticinco años los terroristas de Hezbolá, respaldados por Irán, emprendieron un horrible ataque contra la comunidad judía en Argentina matando a 85 personas e hiriendo a centenares de personas”, Rubio dijo. “Hoy, honramos a las víctimas y a los sobrevivientes de los atentados con carro bomba a la Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA) en Buenos Aires, y nos comprometemos una vez más a ayudar al gobierno de Argentina a buscar justicia para las víctimas y sus familias”.
Una investigación conjunta de EE.UU. y Argentina concluyó que agentes de Hezbolá, apoyados por Irán, fueron los responsables del atentado. La resolución pide al presidente Donald Trump que monitoree las actividades de Irán en el hemisferio occidental y que ayude al gobierno de Argentina a apoyar su investigación en curso sobre la muerte del fiscal argentino Alberto Nisman, quien fue asesinado mientras investigaba el ataque.
La resolución es co-patrocinada por los senadores Ben Cardin (D-MD), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Tim Kaine (D-VA) y Todd Young (R-IN).
Rubio es el Presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
