(PLO) slogan has been adopted by Hamas and calls for 
the elimination of Israel and the death of all Jews; 
Whereas in September 2022, Rashida Tlaib, as a member of 
the Congressional Progressive Caucus, displayed her dis-
dain for Israel, saying, ‘‘You cannot claim to hold pro-
gressive values yet back Israel’s apartheid government.’’; 
Whereas instead of denouncing the horrors of Hamas slaugh-
tering Israelis and demanding the release of all hostages 
held by Hamas, Rashida Tlaib stated on October 8, 
2023, ‘‘The path to the future must include lifting the 
blockade, ending the occupation, and dismantling the 
apartheid system that creates the suffocating dehuman-
izing conditions that can lead to resistance.’’; 
Whereas Rashida Tlaib exhibited her hatred for America by 
reposting a message on October 12, 2023, blaming Amer-
ica for allowing the deaths of Palestinian babies at the 
hands of Israel; 
Whereas Rashida Tlaib led an insurrection at the United 
States Capitol Complex on October 18, 2023, which put 
Members of Congress, their staffs, and Capitol visitors in 
danger by shutting down elevators, stairwells, and points 
of egress, while obstructing official business in both the 
House of Representatives and the Senate, including a 
Senate Foreign Affairs Committee hearing; 
Whereas the insurrection led by Rashida Tlaib was organized 
by Jewish Voice for Peace, which the Anti-Defamation 
League calls ‘‘a radical anti-Israel activist group that ad-
vocates for a complete economic, cultural and academic 
boycott of the state of Israel’’, and that believes ‘‘Israeli 
policies and actions are motivated by deeply rooted Jew-
ish racial chauvinism and religious supremacism.’’;

Whereas members of the Southern Poverty Law Center, a 
far-left nonprofit organization, were present at the insur-
rection at the Capitol on October 18, 2023; 
Whereas several insurrectionists at the Capitol belong to a 
group messaging chat called, ‘‘Global Intifada’’, which is 
the Arabic word for ‘‘rebellion’’ or ‘‘uprising’’, and refers 
to a series of protests and violent riots carried out by 
Palestinians in Israel during the last century; 
Whereas by leading an anti-American and antisemitic insur-
rection on October 18, 2023, Rashida Tlaib followed 
Hezbollah’s orders to carry out a ‘‘day of unprecedented 
anger’’ following an explosion at a Gazan hospital, lying 
about Israel’s responsibility for the attack, which United 
States intelligence agencies said was not perpetrated by 
Israel; and 
Whereas Members of Congress who denounce the United 
States while praising terrorist organizations are unfit to 
hold office: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That— 
(1) Representative Rashida Tlaib be censured; 
(2) Representative Rashida Tlaib forthwith 
present herself in the well of the House of Rep-
resentatives for the pronouncement of censure; 
(3) Representative Rashida Tlaib be censured 
with the public reading of this resolution by the 
Speaker; and 
(4) the House of Representatives condemns 
support for terrorist organizations.
