AI Summary

This resolution condemns a violent antisemitic attack that occurred on June 1, 2025, during a Run for Their Lives march in Boulder, Colorado, where participants were peacefully calling for the release of Hamas hostages. The resolution details that the attack involved a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails, injuring multiple people, including a Holocaust survivor, and is being investigated as a terrorist hate crime. The document highlights the broader context of rising antisemitic incidents in the United States, with Colorado experiencing a 40 percent increase in antisemitic activity in 2024 and Jewish communities nationwide facing increased threats and intimidation. The Senate resolves to condemn the attack, express solidarity with survivors and their families, recognize the Boulder community's resilience, call for vigilance and federal resources to combat antisemitism, support targeted communities, and affirm that hate and violence have no place in the United States, emphasizing the importance of protecting freedom of speech, religion, and the right to live without fear of persecution.
