HRES 1463 United States House · 118th Congress

Censuring Representative Bennie Thompson for inciting violence, including two assassination attempts, against President Donald Trump.

HRES 1463 is a resolution (not a legislative bill) censuring Representative Bennie Thompson for actions the resolution claims incited violence against former President Trump. It specifically references Thompson’s introduction of H.R. 8081 (the "DISGRACED Former Protectees Act," which sought to remove Trump’s Secret Service protection) and quotes staff comments and statements by Thompson and other cosponsors that the resolution labels as inciting violence. If passed, the resolution would require Thompson to appear in the House chamber for a public reading of the censure by the Speaker. This is a procedural House action with no legal effect beyond formal rebuke, not a policy change.
