The Senate Resolution condemns the violent attack on the United States Capitol that occurred on January 6, 2021, which disrupted the peaceful transfer of power and resulted in significant injuries to law enforcement officers, particularly the Capitol Police. The resolution highlights the extraordinary courage and professionalism displayed by the Capitol Police and other law enforcement agencies in defending the Capitol and protecting members of Congress during the insurrection. It emphasizes that the attack was not only an assault on the Capitol but also on the rule of law and American democracy.

Furthermore, the resolution denounces the use of presidential pardon power by President Trump to absolve individuals involved in the insurrection, particularly those who assaulted law enforcement officers. It notes that this act is a betrayal to the brave officers who risked their lives and undermines the rule of law. The resolution calls for accountability for those who committed violent acts against law enforcement and expresses the collective condemnation of such actions by law enforcement organizations. Copies of the resolution will be sent to key government officials, including the President and members of Congress.
