Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives condemning all forms of political violence and rejecting rhetoric that dehumanizes or demonizes political opponents.

H. Res. 746 is a non-binding sense resolution introduced in the House of Representatives (Sept. 18, 2025) by Rep. Veasey with a broad group of cosponsors. The resolution expresses the House’s condemnation of all forms of political violence and rejects rhetoric that dehumanizes or demonizes political opponents. It presents a series of “Whereas” statements highlighting recent violent incidents and threats against public figures to illustrate the threat to democracy, safety, and civil discourse. The measure then sets out seven operative points: a broad condemnation of violence; a commitment to peaceful, lawful dispute resolution; a call to protect the safety and dignity of public officials; a demand for robust law-enforcement investigation and accountability; commendation of those who respond to violence; a call for officials, community leaders, and the media to reject dehumanizing rhetoric; and a note that such threats undermine the integrity of the House and democratic institutions. As a resolution, this Bill does not create new law or authorize spending. Instead, it publicly states the House’s values and priorities, potentially guiding public messaging, informing policy discussions, and signaling a stance against political violence and inflammatory rhetoric.
