Bill Summary

Deeming certain conduct of members of Antifa as domestic terrorism and designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.

AI Summary

This resolution designates Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization by formally declaring that the conduct of Antifa members during demonstrations constitutes domestic terrorism under U.S. legal code. The resolution cites numerous specific incidents of alleged violence, property destruction, and civil unrest across multiple cities, including riots in Portland, Berkeley, and Atlanta, where Antifa members were accused of damaging property, attacking police officers, and causing significant financial harm. The document highlights statements from law enforcement and government officials, including FBI Director Christopher Wray and the Department of Justice, who have characterized Antifa's activities as organized and potentially terroristic. The resolution calls on the Department of Justice to prosecute these activities as domestic terrorism and to utilize all available resources to combat the spread of such actions. The underlying rationale presented is that Antifa's tactics, which allegedly include physical confrontation, property destruction, and intimidation, represent a threat to law enforcement and American civic order, and are motivated by extreme political ideologies including communism, anarchism, and socialism.
