This resolution commemorates the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz extermination camp in Nazi-occupied Poland and International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It acknowledges the systematic murder of 6,000,000 Jews and millions of other individuals by the Nazi regime, with 1,100,000 victims perishing at Auschwitz alone. The camp, liberated on January 27, 1945, serves as a symbol of the Holocaust's extraordinary brutality and the suffering endured by its victims. The resolution calls on the American people to remember these victims, honor the legacy of Holocaust survivors, and educate future generations about the dangers of intolerance to prevent similar injustices. It highlights a significant increase in anti-Semitic incidents globally and within the United States, including a 63-percent rise from 2022 to 2023. Therefore, the House of Representatives recommits to combating all forms of anti-Semitism and working towards tolerance, peace, and justice to end all genocide and persecution.
