72 | 72 | | RESOLUTION |
---|
73 | 73 | | Condemning the Members of Congress constituting the |
---|
74 | 74 | | leadership team of the House Republican Conference. |
---|
75 | 75 | | Whereas, on March 5, 2025, the House Republican Con- |
---|
76 | 76 | | ference’s political arm posted a vile post on X about |
---|
77 | 77 | | United States Congressman Adriano Espaillat of New |
---|
78 | 78 | | York, the Chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Cau- |
---|
79 | 79 | | cus, calling into question his immigration status and pa- |
---|
80 | 80 | | triotism; |
---|
81 | 81 | | Whereas this xenophobic rhetoric from the House Republican |
---|
82 | 82 | | Conference proves that one can follow the law, earn legal |
---|
83 | 83 | | status, become a citizen of the United States, get duly |
---|
84 | 84 | | elected to Congress, swear multiple oaths of office to up- |
---|
85 | 85 | | hold and defend the Constitution, and still be called an |
---|
86 | 86 | | ‘‘illegal immigrant’’, despite its ignorance and inaccuracy; |
---|
87 | 87 | | Whereas this xenophobic and anti-immigrant rhetoric is be- |
---|
88 | 88 | | neath the oath of office for a Member of Congress and |
---|
89 | 89 | | has no place in the House of Representatives; and |
---|
90 | 90 | | Whereas this post followed an intense debate on the House |
---|
91 | 91 | | floor about decorum and the need for Members of Con- |
---|
92 | 92 | | gress to rise above political division and elevate the dis- |
---|
93 | 93 | | course of this sacred citadel of American democracy: |
---|
94 | 94 | | Now, therefore, be it |
