Following WHA procedure, we submitted the resolution to a vote of the entire membership of the WHA from February 18-25, 2025. The vote passed with 83% of participants in favor of the resolution, 13% opposed, and 4% abstaining.

Therefore, the resolution is affirmed as a measure of the WHA.

In general meetup fashion, we forgot to take photos until after people started leaving our gathering last night!
