H. RES. 97
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives respecting curriculum
to teach about the horrors of nazism.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
FEBRUARY 18, 1993
Mr. SAXTON submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and Labor
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives
respecting curriculum to teach about the horrors of nazism.
Whereas the brutal murder of millions upon millions of inno-
cent people and the unspeakable attempt to commit geno-
cide against the Jews by the Nazis are crimes unparal-
leled in the history of mankind and constitute acts which
cannot be forgiven and forgotten;
Whereas despite the enormity of the atrocities carried out by
the Nazis, it has been erroneously argued that time
should heal all wounds and that generations born after
the Holocaust should not have to bear responsibility for
that tragedy; and
Whereas since a crucial linchpin to Nazi ideology was racism,
it is incumbent on our society to teach its children that
racism in any form is an anathema to all mankind and
•HRES 97 IH
that any group which advocates a policy of racial suprem-
acy is no less guilty than the Nazi and Fascist govern-
ments which murdered millions in the name of racial pu-
rity: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House that the
Department of Education should develop a curriculum for
instructing primary and secondary school children in the
history of the Nazi rise to power in Germany, the social
and economic forces which were the foundations of na-
zism, and the resulting Holocaust which was perpetrated
against humanity by the Nazis.

demned Iran’s execution of more than 200 Baha’is and
the imprisonment of thousands of others solely on ac-

Whereas the Government of Iran continues to deny individual
Baha’is access to higher education and government em-

in a confidential Iranian Government document which
was revealed by the United Nations Commission on

ers hostile to the interests of the United States.

ment of new and environmentally compatible fuels,
renewable sources of energy, or both.

CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Urging a home field advantage in the Major League Baseball

Whereas America’s free enterprise system is based on the
idea that those who succeed should reap benefits in direct
proportion to their level of success;
Whereas rewarding excellence and creating incentives for suc-
cess, hard work, and fair play are the hallmarks of Major
League Baseball;
Whereas, under the current Major League Baseball playoff
system, a team with the best record in its league may be
penalized by not having a home field advantage; and
Whereas baseball is the only major American professional
team sport where a team with the poorer record may
have the home field advantage: Now, therefore, be it
