Providing the sense of the House of Representatives that the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump was an abhorrent act of cowardice that must be universally condemned and that the only appropriate place for the Nation to settle political disputes is at the ballot box on election day.
HRES 1378 is a symbolic resolution passed by the U.S. House of Representatives expressing the chamber's stance on the July 13, 2024, attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. It condemns the attack as an "abhorrent act of cowardice" that must be universally rejected and asserts that political disputes should only be resolved through elections, not violence. The resolution does not create new laws or affect any specific group; it is a non-binding statement intended to promote civility in political discourse. It was introduced by Republican members of Congress and passed without amendment.
