Message on Senate action sent to the House.
This resolution authorizes the use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center on April 23, 2025 for a ceremony as part of the Days of Remembrance for victims of the Holocaust. It directs that physical preparations for that ceremony be carried out under conditions set by the Architect of the Capitol. The authorization covers use of congressional space and event arrangements; it does not create a new law or apply outside the Capitol Visitor Center.
This is a concurrent resolution agreed to by both the House and the Senate and is not presented to the President. It does not have the force of law and governs internal congressional operations and use of Capitol facilities.

Prefers clear rules for use of federal spaces to avoid politicization.
Likely supportive overall, viewing the ceremony as an appropriate moral condemnation of the Holocaust and antisemitism, but wanting limited taxpayer expense and neutral, nonpolitical use of federal space.
