‘‘Museum’’) opened to the public as a permanent living 
memorial museum to the victims of the Holocaust, fol-
lowing dedication ceremonies days earlier with the Presi-
dent of the United States, the President of the State of 
Israel, the Chairman of the Holocaust Memorial Council 
Harvey Meyerhoff, and 1986 Nobel Peace Prize winner 
and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel; 
Whereas, for 3 decades, the Museum has been teaching both 
the history of the Holocaust and the lessons learned from 
the Holocaust, including lessons about the fragility of de-
mocracy, the power of propaganda, and the dangers of 
hatred, antisemitism, and inaction, to members of the 
public, especially youth, from all walks of life, including 
members of underserved communities; 
Whereas the aim of the Museum’s educational work is to pro-
mote self-reflection and critical thinking about the roles 
and responsibilities of individuals in the world today and 
catalyze actions to confront hatred, prevent genocide, and 
promote human dignity; 
Whereas, during its first 30 years, the Museum has welcomed 
over 47,000,000 visitors, including millions of school-
children and more than 100 heads of state; 
Whereas the Museum has enabled hundreds of Holocaust sur-
vivors to share their experiences with tens of thousands 
of students and the public at the Museum, online, and 
across the country;

structors and their students across multiple disciplines on

(9) opened the International Tracing Service Ar-
chives, which enables the Museum to provide thousands 
of survivors and their families with historic documenta-
tion pertaining to their individual wartime experiences; 
Whereas the Museum has become a well-respected inter-
national resource, having— 
(1) worked with European Union officials and Euro-
pean governments in Eastern and Western Europe to ad-
vance policies and institutions devoted to preserving the 
memory and relevance of the Holocaust in perpetuity; 
(2) raised awareness of the Holocaust in parts of the 
Middle East and held the first Holocaust remembrance 
ceremonies in the United Arab Emirates and Egypt; and 
(3) helped establish the field of genocide prevention, 
becoming a resource for policymakers and raising public 
awareness of populations currently threatened by geno-
cide and mass atrocities, such as the Uyghurs, Rohingya, 
and Yezidis; 
Whereas, more than 75 years after the Holocaust, anti-
semitism continues to be expressed publicly around the 
world 
through

proliferation 
of 
hate 
speech, 
disinformation, and conspiracy theories that lead to hate 
crimes and violence, both in the United States and 
abroad;

Holocaust and antisemitism; 
Whereas, on June 14, 2021, the Senate unanimously adopted
