RES. 895 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES November 28, 2023 Mr. Landsman (for himself and Mr. Goldman of New York ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary RESOLUTION Condemning calls from Members of Congress for the expulsion of Palestinians from the United States.

Whereas, on November 2, 2023, H.R. 6211 was introduced and promoted as legislation that would Expel Palestinians from the United States ; Whereas this rhetoric calls for the removal of an entire people from our Nation; Whereas this rhetoric unfairly and dangerously conflates Palestinians with Hamas and its actions; Whereas this rhetoric implies immigrants are a danger to America, ignoring our Nation’s long history of welcoming people of all faiths and backgrounds; and Whereas this rhetoric is un-American, bigoted, and is designed to inflame tensions which could result in violence: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives condemns calls from Members of Congress for the expulsion of Palestinians from the United States.
