RESOLUTION
A resolution solemnly marking the one-year anniversary of the attempted
assassination of President Donald J. Trump, condemning the multiple
attempts against the President's life, condemning those who incite
violence against political officials, and honoring the victims of the
shooting.
Whereas, on July 13, 2024, an attempt was made on the life of President Donald
J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania;
Whereas Corey D. Comperatore tragically died while shielding his family from the
gunfire in Butler, Pennsylvania;
Whereas David Dutch and James Copenhaver were critically injured in the attack
and hospitalized in Butler, Pennsylvania;
Whereas, during these attacks, law enforcement, first responders, and medical
personnel performed their duties with professionalism and heroism;
Whereas, on December 10, 2024, the Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of
Donald J. Trump released their Final Report of Findings and
Recommendations; and
Whereas continued calls for violence against the President of the United States,
violent acts carried out against elected officials like those
perpetrated on Governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro, Minnesota State
House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman, and Minnesota State Senator John
Hoffman, and continued divisive rhetoric targeting elected officials are
contradictory to the United States tradition and risk undermining the
democratic process and endangering the lives of public servants: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) condemns the assassination attempts against President
Donald J. Trump on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Pennsylvania, and
on September 15, 2024, in West Palm Beach, Florida;
(2) honors Corey D. Comperatore, who died while protecting
his family from the gunfire at the rally for President Trump;
(3) honors David Dutch and James Copenhaver, who were
critically injured in the gunfire at the rally for President
Trump and hospitalized;
(4) expresses gratitude to the law enforcement officers,
first responders, and medical personnel who responded to the
attacks, conducted investigations, and provided aid to the
victims;
(5) affirms that the United States Secret Service is the
agency responsible for protecting the country's highest elected
officials and is therefore central to upholding the Nation's
constitutional values; and
(6) calls on all United States citizens to unite against
political violence and condemns those who incite violence
against political officials.
