                               RESOLUTION


 
 A resolution expressing support for the designation of a ``Faith and 
 Defiance Day,'' honoring the victims of the July 13th, 2024 shooting, 
 condemning political violence, and acknowledging the positive impact 
             President Donald J. Trump has had on America.

Whereas America is a nation rooted in faith and founded in defiance of an unjust 
        authority;
Whereas President Trump, after being struck by a would-be assassin's bullet on 
        July 13th, 2024, stood in an act of faith and defiance, pumping his fist 
        and rallying Americans to ``fight, fight, fight!'';
Whereas Corey D. Comperatore, a devoted husband and father, was tragically 
        killed while shielding loved ones from the hail of gunfire during the 
        July 13th attack;
Whereas James Copenhaver and David Dutch were grievously injured in the July 
        13th attack;
Whereas numerous supporters in attendance, including an emergency room 
        physician, heroically provided comfort and medical aid to the victims of 
        the July 13th attack;
Whereas the brave efforts of the Secret Service, local law enforcement agencies, 
        first responders, and medical professionals prevented further harm 
        during the attack;
Whereas President Trump rightly stated God alone prevented the unthinkable from 
        happening;
Whereas the motto of the United States, ``In God We Trust,'' reflects the 
        enduring faith that steeled President Trump for a return to Butler, 
        Pennsylvania, even after an additional assassination attempt occurred 
        just five miles from his home on September 15th, 2024;
Whereas Donald J. Trump was elected as the 47th President of the United States 
        in the 2024 election, winning with an Electoral College margin of 312-
        226, while also securing the national popular vote and winning every 
        swing State; and
Whereas President Trump has continued his ``fight, fight, fight'' for what is 
        best for the United States of America, resilient in his faith and 
        defiant in the face of wickedness; Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives:
            (1) Supports the designation of a ``Faith and Defiance 
        Day''.
            (2) Honors the life and heroism of Corey D. Comperatore.
            (3) Recognizes James Copenhaver and David Dutch for their 
        strength and courage in recovery.
            (4) Condemns all acts of political violence, regardless of 
        target or motive.
            (5) Acknowledges the positive impact our 45th and 47th 
        President Donald J. Trump's leadership has had on national 
        policy and public sentiment.
