Introduced and handed to a committee in the chamber it started in.

The committee holds it, and most bills are never heard from again. A hearing or a committee vote would be news; silence is the usual outcome, and it kills the bill without anyone voting against it.

Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced
  2. In Committee

A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution condemns the violent June 2025 riots that took place in Los Angeles, California. It notes that protests over federal immigration enforcement quickly escalated into arson, vandalism, and assaults on law enforcement officers. The text highlights that local and state leadership failed to contain the disorder or support overwhelmed officers. Over 40 rioters were arrested, and five Los Angeles Police Department officers were injured during the chaos. Ultimately, the House of Representatives resolves to recognize peaceful assembly, condemn the violence, call for leadership to restore peace, and express gratitude to law enforcement.
