H.Res. 1086 is a symbolic resolution that recognizes the historical significance of the Clotilda, a ship that illegally brought 110 enslaved Africans to Alabama in 1860—the last known slave ship to arrive in the United States. The resolution condemns the U.S. government's role in enabling and sustaining the Atlantic slave trade through legal, political, and economic systems, and acknowledges the lasting trauma and injustice inflicted on African Americans and their descendants. It specifically honors the 110 Africans aboard the Clotilda and their descendants, as well as Africatown, a community founded around 1868 by survivors of the ship in Mobile, Alabama. The resolution encourages the Architect of the Capitol to consider creating a memorial within the Capitol Grounds to commemorate the Clotilda and all victims of the Atlantic slave trade. As a House resolution, this legislation does not create law or allocate funding; instead, it expresses the House's official position on this historical injustice and calls for recognition and remembrance.
