Denouncing the horrors of socialism.

House Concurrent Resolution 9 is a formal statement expressing the sense of Congress that socialism is incompatible with American values. The resolution outlines a history of famine and civil rights abuses associated with socialist regimes abroad and declares that the United States should not implement socialist policies.

As a concurrent resolution, this measure does not create new laws, authorize government spending, or change existing regulations. Its primary impact is to establish an official symbolic stance by the House of Representatives against socialist economic and political systems.
