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.
