Resolved,

This resolution may be cited as the ‘‘SFC Sean Cooley 
and SPC Christopher Horton Congressional Gold Star Fam-
ily Fellowship Program Act’’. 
SEC. 2. CONGRESSIONAL GOLD STAR FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM. 
(a) ESTABLISHMENT.—There is established in the

•HRES 1082 IH 
not defend the constitutionality of the minimum essential 
coverage provision; 
Whereas, in the June 7, 2018, letter to Congress, then Attor-
ney General Jefferson Sessions announced that the De-
partment of Justice would instead argue that provisions 
protecting individuals with pre-existing medical condi-
tions (specifically the provisions commonly known as 
‘‘community rating’’ and ‘‘guaranteed issue’’) are not 
severable from the minimum essential coverage provision 
and ought to be invalidated; 
Whereas the United States District Court for the Northern 
District of Texas issued an order on December 14, 2018, 
that struck down the ACA in its entirety, including pro-
tections for individuals with pre-existing conditions, based 
on the ruling of that court that the requirement to main-
tain minimum essential coverage was unconstitutional; 
Whereas, on March 25, 2019, the Department of Justice, in 
a letter to the United States Court of Appeals for the 
Fifth Circuit, changed its position and announced that 
the central holding of the United States District Court 
for the Northern District of Texas should be upheld and 
the entire ACA should be declared inseverable from the 
minimum essential coverage provision and struck down; 
Whereas, on December 18, 2019, the United States Court of 
Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in Texas v. United States, 
945 F.3d 355 (5th Cir. 2019), upheld the decision of the 
United States District Court for the Northern District of 
Texas striking down the minimum essential coverage pro-
vision, but vacated the decision on severability and re-
manded the case to the United States District Court for 
the Northern District of Texas;

•HRES 1081 IH 
Whereas Germany pursued meticulous contact tracing to slow 
the spread of the virus, authoritarian regimes have taken 
extreme measures forcing their people into isolation, in-
cluding welding closed the doors of their homes; 
Whereas Japan treasured the health of Olympic visitors 
ahead of economic prosperity, authoritarian regimes 
placed regime security over global public health; and 
Whereas New Zealand rallied its people to face COVID–19 
and eliminate the virus from its borders, authoritarian 
regimes waited several critical days before sharing valu-
able information on the virus with their people: Now, 
therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that the United States— 
(1) recognizes the commitment of democracies 
to democratic values and institutions in their dy-
namic response to the global COVID–19 pandemic 
and condemns the actions of those that seek to use 
the pandemic as an instrument to consolidate un-
democratic power and violate human rights; 
(2) remembers its commitment to fundamental 
democratic principles and to opposing the influence 
of authoritarian regimes that threaten the inter-
national order; 
(3) 
rejects 
the 
hollow 
appeal 
of 
authoritarianism and urges the leaders of these 
countries to reconsider their pursuit of censorship, 
exploitation, and suppression of human rights;

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
AUGUST 18, 2020 
Ms. DEAN (for herself, Ms. SCANLON, Ms. WILD, and Ms. HOULAHAN) sub-
mitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on

RESOLUTION 
Recognizing the importance and significance of the Justice 
Bell in the women’s suffrage movement. 
Whereas, in 1915, the Justice Bell, also referred to as the 
‘‘Women’s Liberty Bell’’ and the ‘‘Suffrage Bell’’, was 
created by Katharine Wentworth Ruschenberger, a mem-
ber of the Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage Association, 
and is a close replica of the Liberty Bell; 
Whereas the Justice Bell is inscribed with the words ‘‘Estab-
lish Justice’’; 
Whereas, in 1915, the Justice Bell was taken on a driving 
tour throughout 67 counties in Pennsylvania to raise 
awareness for women’s suffrage with the clapper on the 
bell notably not ringing, symbolizing the silence of women 
who did not have a vote;

cation of the 19th Amendment and recognizes the 
Justice Bell as a symbol for women’s suffrage; and
