Expressing the sense of Congress that the insurrection at the United States Capitol involved acts of domestic terrorism, and condemning the instigating role of the Proud Boys in these acts.
Summary
House Resolution 115 is a non-binding measure that formally defines the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol as an act of domestic terrorism. The resolution specifically identifies and condemns the Proud Boys for their role in instigating the events of that day, labeling the group’s actions as domestic terrorism.
Because this is a "sense of Congress" resolution, it does not create new laws, authorize funding, or carry the weight of a criminal indictment. Instead, its primary impact is to establish an official congressional position on the nature of the attack and the organizations involved, which can influence future policy discussions regarding domestic extremism and national security.
