 RESOLUTION

 Condemning the antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado.

Whereas, on Sunday, June 1, 2025, 12 innocent American citizens were the subject 
 of a coordinated terrorist attack meant to take the lives of Jewish 
 Americans;
Whereas those attacked ranged between the ages of 52 and 88, with one of the 
 victims of the attack being a survivor of the Holocaust;
Whereas the perpetrator of the attack, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, used Molotov 
 cocktails and a makeshift flamethrower in an attempt to murder 
 individuals specifically because of their Jewish heritage;
Whereas Mohamed Soliman was reported to have yelled, ``Free Palestine,'' as he 
 initiated his attack against a crowd of innocent Americans peacefully 
 bringing awareness to the hostages that remain captive in Gaza;
Whereas this heinous terrorist attack comes amidst an alarming rise in 
 antisemitic violence sweeping the United States;
Whereas, in the last 2 months alone, radical pro-Palestine activists have killed 
 an engaged couple working at the Israeli Embassy and set fire to 
 Governor Josh Shapiro's home; and
Whereas Mohamed Soliman had illegally overstayed his initial visa, and should 
 have never been permitted to remain in the country as long as he was: 
 Now, therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

    (1) unequivocally condemns the antisemitic terrorist attack 
 that took place against innocent Americans in Boulder, 
 Colorado;

    (2) condemns antisemitism in all its forms, and expresses 
 grave concern about the rise in antisemitic behavior and 
 actions reported across college campuses, online, and in other 
 public spaces;

    (3) prays for the swift and full recovery of all those 
 injured in the attack, and expresses thanks to the police and 
 emergency responders for their immediate action;

    (4) calls for the perpetrator of the terrorist attack to be 
 prosecuted under the full extent of the law; and

    (5) urges Congress to take immediate action to secure the 
 border and deport migrants who overstay their visas.
