Raising a question of the privileges of the House. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
FEBRUARY 6, 2018 
Ms. MICHELLE LUJAN GRISHAM of New Mexico submitted the following 
resolution; which was laid on the table 
RESOLUTION 
Raising a question of the privileges of the House. 
Whereas, on January 30, 2018, Representative Paul Gosar 
tweeted a series of statements that included ‘‘Today, 
Congressman Paul Gosar contacted the U.S. Capitol Po-
lice, as well as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, asking 
that they consider checking identification of all attending 
the State of the Union address and arresting any illegal 
aliens in attendance.’’; 
Whereas Representative Gosar went on to tweet ‘‘Any illegal 
aliens attempting to go through security, under any pre-
text of invitation or otherwise, should be arrested and de-
ported,’’ said Congressman Gosar; 
Whereas Representative Gosar’s comments explicitly targeted 
the DACA recipients that Members of Congress brought 
as their guests to the State of the Union;

HRES 726 LTH 
Whereas DACA recipients have been granted deferred action, 
are contributing to this country, and have been thor-
oughly vetted by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration 
Services; 
Whereas Representative Gosar’s actions to inappropriately 
pressure the U.S. Capitol Police to detain and deport 
Dreamers, who are staying in the country according to 
U.S. Department of Homeland Security regulations, in-
timidated these young people who are already facing fear 
and uncertainty; 
Whereas Representative Gosar abused the power in an at-
tempt to interfere with and politicize the United States 
Capitol Police’s efforts to provide for a safe, secure, and 
open environment during the State of the Union; 
Whereas Representative Gosar has violated clause 1 of rule 
XXIII of the Code of Official Conduct which states that 
‘‘A Member, Delegate, Resident Commissioner, officer or 
employee of the House shall behave at all times in a 
manner that shall reflect creditably on the House’’: Now, 
therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives strongly 
condemns Representative Paul Gosar for his inappropriate 
actions that intimidated State of the Union guests and 
discredited the House of Representatives.

Reaffirming United States support for Israel and condemning the United 
Nations Human Rights Council for certain wasteful and abusive actions. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
FEBRUARY 7, 2018 
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina submitted the following resolution; which was 
referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the 
Committee on Financial Services, for a period to be subsequently deter-
mined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions 
as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned 
RESOLUTION 
Reaffirming United States support for Israel and condemning 
the United Nations Human Rights Council for certain 
wasteful and abusive actions. 
Whereas the United Nations Human Rights Council, also 
known as the UNHRC, when targeting Israel as a per-
manent agenda item with no other country singled out in 
the same manner, wastes United States taxpayer dollars 
and other limited resources; 
Whereas a recent UNHRC report targets at least twenty-two 
United States companies conducting lawful business with 
Israel, which could result in specious legal entanglements; 
Whereas the UNHRC report prepares groundwork for boy-
cotts against companies that do business with Israel;

Whereas, on March 24, 2017, the Trump Administration 
stated that this effort falls far outside the scope of the 
UNHRC’s mandate and drains ‘‘precious resources that 
could be used to promote and protect human rights 
around the world’’; 
Whereas in 2007, a United Nations spokesperson noted then- 
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s ‘‘dis-
appointment’’ with the UNHRC’s decision to ‘‘single out 
only one specific regional item, given the range and scope 
of allegations of human rights violations throughout the 
world’’; and 
Whereas the UNHRC operates without transparency and 
wastes scarce staff resources on false human rights 
issues, which reduces resources for actual human rights 
cases: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) reaffirms the United States support for 
Israel; 
(2) condemns the United Nations Human 
Rights Council’s (UNHRC) actions as wasteful and 
abusive; 
(3) urges Congress to support S. 720 and H.R. 
1697 that expands anti-boycott laws to extend to 
international organizations such as the United Na-
tions and European Union;

Haley in 2017 stating that the United States ‘‘does

Whereas it would also be befitting to end the period of Do-
minican heritage on February 27, the Dominican Repub-
lic’s Independence Day; 
Whereas it would give the Nation the opportunity to acknowl-
edge and applaud the economic, cultural, and social con-
tributions Dominican-Americans have made to the United 
States; and 
Whereas it would also give the Nation an opportunity to con-
sider the many Dominican achievements, on the island 
and in the United States: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) supports the goals and ideals of Dominican 
Heritage Month; 
(2) supports the establishment of a national 
month of Recognition for Dominican-Americans to 
honor the Dominican people and their contributions; 
and 
(3) urges the people of the United States to ob-
serve a national month of recognition for Domini-
can-Americans with appropriate ceremonies, pro-
grams, and activities.
