Whereas, on March 27, 2023, a mass shooting that claimed the lives of 6 teachers

Whereas these victims included 9-year-old students, Evelyn Dieckhaus, William

        custodian Mike Hill, and substitute teacher Cynthia Peak;
Whereas the people of Tennessee and the United States continue to pray for the 
        individuals who were affected by this unspeakable evil;
Whereas the Nashville community has shown strength, compassion, and unity; and
Whereas officers of the Nashville Police Department and other first responders 
        demonstrated incredible bravery preventing the loss of additional life: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) honors the memories of the victims of the senseless and 
        cowardly attack at the Covenant School on March 27, 2023, and 
        offers heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathies to the 
        families, loved ones, friends, and church family of the 
        victims;
            (2) recognizes the strength and resilience of the Covenant 
        School community, the City of Nashville, and the State of 
        Tennessee;
            (3) expresses deep gratitude to the first responders, 
        including police officers, emergency medical personnel, fire 
        department officials, and local, State, and Federal agents and 
        officers, including Nashville Police Chief John Drake, whose 
        incredible bravery prevented the loss of additional life; and
            (4) applauds the heroism displayed by the officers,
