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.
H. Res. 574 is a non-binding House resolution that expresses support for designating a “Faith and Defiance Day,” honors the victims and heroes connected to the July 13, 2024 shooting, condemns political violence, and acknowledges the positive impact of President Donald J. Trump on the United States. The measure recounts the events and individuals associated with the July 13 attack, including victims and first responders, and it frames these events in a context of faith, resilience, and defiance. It also praises President Trump for his leadership and references his continued influence on national policy and public sentiment. The resolution is introductory and, if adopted, would be a symbolic expression of the House’s views rather than a source of new law or policy. Key procedural notes: the bill was introduced in the House on July 10, 2025, by a sponsor identified as Mr. Rulli and referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. As a resolution, it does not create or fund programs and would not by itself designate any holiday or set specific actions; it signals congressional support for pursuing or endorsing such a designation at the appropriate level.
