RESOLUTION 
Celebrating the historic anniversary of the June 24, 2022, 
decision of the Supreme Court of the United States 
in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

evident truth that ‘‘all men are created equal’’ and ‘‘are 
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable 
Rights’’; 
Whereas the first of those unalienable rights is the right to 
life;

Whereas modern science has illuminated our understanding 
of the humanity of unborn life; 
Whereas the Supreme Court of the United States committed 
a grave error in Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973) (re-
ferred to in this preamble as Roe), by inventing a con-
stitutional right to abortion, thereby denying a class of 
innocent people their right to life; 
Whereas more than 63,000,000 unborn lives were lost to 
abortion under Roe; 
Whereas, on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court of the 
United States, in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Or-
ganization, 142 S. Ct. 2228 (2022) (referred to in this 
preamble as Dobbs), corrected the grave error committed 
in Roe, by holding that ‘‘the Constitution does not confer 
a right to abortion’’ and that ‘‘Roe and Casey must be 
overruled, and the authority to regulate abortion must be 
returned to the people and their elected representatives’’; 
Whereas many States have taken historic steps to protect un-
born life since the ruling of the Supreme Court of the 
United States in Dobbs; and 
Whereas many millions of people in the United States con-
tinue to press to protect unborn life and strengthen sup-
port for families charged with protecting that life: Now, 
therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) commemorates 1 year since the ruling of 
the Supreme Court of the United States in Dobbs 
v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, 142 S. 
Ct. 2228 (2022) (referred to in this resolution as 
Dobbs);
