                               RESOLUTION


 
   Condemning and censuring Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of 
                                Georgia.

Whereas on May 20, 2021, during an interview on Real America's Voice network's 
        ``The Water Cooler'', Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia 
        compared proof of a COVID-19 vaccination to the Holocaust and said, ``We 
        can look back at a time in history where people were told to wear a gold 
        star [sic] and they were definitely treated like second-class citizens, 
        so much so that they were put in trains and taken to gas chambers in 
        Nazi Germany and this is exactly the type of abuse that Nancy Pelosi is 
        talking about.'';
Whereas on May 25, 2021, Representative Greene repeated the comparison in a 
        tweet that said, ``Vaccinated employees get a vaccination logo just like 
        the Nazis forced Jewish people to wear a gold star [sic]. Vaccine 
        passports & mask mandates create discrimination against unvaxxed people 
        who trust their immune systems to a virus that is 99% survivable.'';
Whereas on May 25, 2021, Representative Greene posted a tweet about universities 
        requiring students to be vaccinated that said, ``It appears Nazi 
        practices have already begun on our youth. Show your VAX papers or no in 
        person class for you. This is exactly what I was saying about the gold 
        star [sic].'';
Whereas on June 14, 2021, after visiting the United States Holocaust Memorial 
        Museum, Representative Greene offered an apology and said, ``There are 
        words that I have said, remarks that I've made that I know are 
        offensive, and for that I'd like to apologize.'';
Whereas on September 1, 2022, despite her earlier apology, Representative Greene 
        posted a tweet correlating President Joe Biden to Adolf Hitler that 
        said, ``Joe Biden is Hitler. #NaziJoe has to go.'';
Whereas on September 1, 2022, Representative Greene posted another tweet that 
        included doctored video to show President Biden speaking with audio of 
        Hitler, swastikas in the background, and a mustache akin to that of 
        Hitler;
Whereas Representative Greene's repeated comments debase the memory of the 
        6,000,000 Jews murdered by the Nazis, the survivors of the Holocaust, 
        and their families, as well as all those who fought and died defending 
        democracy against Hitler and his evil;
Whereas the United States has recently experienced a dangerous rise in hate, 
        racism, and violence directed at Jews as well as other racial, ethnic, 
        and religious minorities;
Whereas Congress as a whole, and Members individually, have a duty to condemn 
        rather than amplify hate, bigotry, and racism; and
Whereas Representative Greene's intentional diminishment of the horrors of the 
        Nazis, her repeated inappropriate comparisons to a genocide involving 
        the systematic murder of 6,000,000 Jews, her demonstration that her June 
        2021 apology was insincere, and her callous refusal to refrain from her 
        hateful rhetoric has brought shame on the House of Representatives and 
        jeopardized its reputation and institutional integrity: Now, therefore, 
        be it
    Resolved, That--
            (1) Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia be 
        condemned and censured;
            (2) Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene forthwith present 
        herself in the well of the House of Representatives for the 
        pronouncement of censure; and
            (3) Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene be censured with 
        the public reading of this resolution by the Speaker.
