RESOLUTION 
Condemning the recent rise in antisemitic violence and har-
assment targeting Jewish Americans, standing in soli-
darity with those affected by antisemitism, and for other 
purposes. 
Whereas antisemitism remains a significant concern for Jew-
ish Americans and Jews around the world; 
Whereas, in 2022, the Anti-Defamation League reported 
there were more than 3,500 antisemitic incidents 
throughout the United States; 
Whereas this is the highest number of reported antisemitic 
attacks on record, attacks have taken the form of harass-

ment, assaults, and vandalism such as multiple swastikas 
and an image of Adolf Hitler found on a student’s door 
at Stanford University; 
Whereas a commencement speech delivered by a law school 
graduate at the City University of New York called for 
a 
‘‘revolution 
against 
Zionism’’ 
and 
perpetuated 
antisemitic conspiracies and tropes such as Zionist influ-
ence over political world order and control over financial 
support of the College; 
Whereas, in recent years, there has been an alarming rise in 
attacks against Jewish individuals and institutions, such 
as schools and synagogues, examples, including— 
(1) a firebomb attack on a synagogue in Bloomfield, 
New Jersey; 
(2) shootings of 2 Jewish men as they walked home 
from their synagogues in Los Angeles, California; 
(3) a hostage crisis during Shabbat services in 
Colleyville, Texas; and 
(4) the deadliest antisemitic attack in American his-
tory at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Penn-
sylvania; 
Whereas the Anti-Defamation League 2022 report found that 
antisemitic incidents occurred in all 50 States and the 
District of Columbia; 
Whereas American Jewish Committee’s (AJC) 2022 State of 
Antisemitism in America report found that of Jews in the 
United States— 
(1) 41 percent said the status of Jews in the United 
States is less secure than a year ago, up from 31 percent 
in 2021; 
(2) 4 in 10 changed their behavior in at least one 
way out of fear of antisemitism; and

(3) 1 in 5 felt somewhat or very unsafe when attend-
ing Jewish institutions because of antisemitism; 
Whereas, according to a study conducted by the Anti-Defa-
mation League, New York State leads the Nation in 
antisemitic incidents, with assaults at a record high; 
Whereas antisemitic rhetoric found on mainstream social 
media platforms can be linked to dozens of incidents 
across the country; 
Whereas various antisemitic content on social media plat-
forms has allowed younger generations to be more ex-
posed to antisemitic rhetoric and ideas, including hateful 
speech towards Jews, disinformation about the Holo-
caust, and incitement of violence against the Jewish com-
munity; 
Whereas the Holocaust was a harrowing event in human his-
tory, resulting in the murder of 6,000,000 Jews, in addi-
tion to many other minorities targeted by the Nazi re-
gime; 
Whereas teaching the history of the Holocaust is an essential 
part of education in schools, and it is imperative that stu-
dents understand the facts and significance of this event; 
Whereas AJC’s 2022 State of Antisemitism in America Re-
port found that only 53 percent of Americans over the 
age of 18 answered correctly that approximately 
6,000,000 Jews were killed in the Holocaust, while 20 
percent explicitly said they were not sure; 
Whereas Holocaust denial and distortion, including inten-
tional efforts to undermine the truth and impact of the 
Holocaust, causes great harm to individuals and commu-
nities affected by the event, dishonors those who were

persecuted and murdered, and exacerbates hate and intol-
erance toward the Jewish community; 
Whereas preserving the history of the Holocaust and con-
fronting Holocaust distortion and denial are critical to 
preventing and combating antisemitic ideology and rhet-
oric; and 
Whereas comprehensive Holocaust education in schools plays 
a fundamental role in understanding and confronting 
antisemitism and all forms of hate: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) unilaterally condemns all forms of anti-
semitism as a threat to democracy and overall safety 
and well-being for Jewish Americans, and stands in 
solidarity with those affected by antisemitism at 
home and abroad; 
(2) recommits to combating antisemitism in all 
forms; 
(3) calls upon all Members of Congress to de-
nounce and combat all forms of antisemitism, em-
phasize the need to raise awareness about the dan-
gers of antisemitism, and encourage leaders across 
this country to speak out against it; and 
(4) pledges to advance accurate Holocaust edu-
cation and counter Holocaust denial and distortion, 
commemorate the victims of the Holocaust, and en-
sure that lessons of the tragedy are not forgotten.
