Condemning Omar Suleiman for celebrating the death of Senator Lindsey Graham and acknowledging that House Democrats invited him to serve as the Guest Chaplain of the U.S. House of Representatives in 2019.

Key Points

• This resolution honors the life and work of the late Lindsey Graham. It highlights his time in the military and his long career in the government. It specifically mentions his work on foreign policy and his strong support for the country of Israel.
• The proposal also officially condemns Omar Suleiman for comments he made after Graham died. Suleiman is the leader of a religious research group in Texas. The resolution says he publicly celebrated the death of the senator and wished him an eternity in ruins.
• The bill points out that House Democrats invited Suleiman to lead a prayer in the House of Representatives back in 2019. It lists several reasons why the sponsors believe he should not have been invited, including his past support for certain political groups and leaders.
• Finally, the resolution supports the work of a group called the Sharia-Free America Caucus. This group was started by House Republicans to protect American laws and freedoms from religious legal systems they believe are incompatible with the American way of life.
