Key Points

  • This resolution honors the eight people killed during a mass shooting at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis on April 15, 2021. Half of the victims were members of the Sikh community, and the resolution marks five years since the tragedy occurred.
  • It officially speaks out against hate crimes and unfair treatment of South Asian, Muslim, Sikh, and Hindu people. It points out that these groups have seen a large increase in threats and violence in recent years.
  • The resolution calls for the government to improve how it tracks hate crimes and to provide more mental health support for survivors. It also asks for the restoration of programs that help communities stay safe from bias and violence.
  • It criticizes recent government actions that have limited immigration and used harsh language about people from other countries. It argues that everyone deserves to live without fear regardless of where they were born or what they believe.
