H.Res. 1216
This resolution condemns a shooting that occurred on April 25, 2026, at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner in Washington, DC. According to the resolution, a gunman opened fire at the event where President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Cabinet members were present. The gunman, who carried multiple firearms and knives, had publicly declared himself a "Friendly Federal Assassin" and expressed intent to target the President and administration officials, making the attack premeditated and politically motivated. Secret Service agents quickly apprehended the suspect and evacuated the officials, though one Secret Service officer was injured. The resolution calls on Congress and the public to reject all forms of political violence, commends law enforcement's response, urges citizens to resolve differences peacefully, and emphasizes the need for robust Secret Service funding through a Department of Homeland Security bill.
