01 · The brief
Simple ResolutionWhat this resolution actually does

This resolution is a House simple resolution that expresses the views of the House of Representatives and does not create binding law. It condemns racist language aimed at Indian and Chinese Americans, affirms the value of immigrants, and calls on elected officials to avoid language that promotes racial or ethnic division. It does not compel the President or any agency to act, change policy, or allocate funds, but records the House majority's formal position.

This House resolution condemns racist rhetoric aimed at Indian and Chinese Americans, cites an amplified social media post by the President, and affirms immigrants' contributions to the United States.

It calls on all elected officials to refrain from language that promotes racial or ethnic division.

The resolution also broadly condemns hate against Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders.
