Bill > HRes1094

This Resolution formally condemns QAnon, a movement that has spread unfounded conspiracy theories online since 2017, and rejects the dangerous ideas it promotes. These theories, which have evolved to encompass a wide range of baseless claims including allegations of secret plots by prominent Americans to exploit children, have been linked by the FBI to domestic extremism and the motivation for criminal and violent activity. The Resolution highlights that QAnon followers have expressed anti-Semitic views and that the movement has been implicated in various crimes, from plotting bombings to threats of violence. It also notes that major social media platforms have removed QAnon content for violating policies against misinformation and hate speech, and that the movement has interfered with legitimate efforts to combat child exploitation. Therefore, the Resolution calls for continued focus by federal law enforcement on preventing violence by extremists motivated by such conspiracy theories and urges all Americans to seek information from reliable sources and engage in political debate based on shared facts.
