Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
H.Res. 728 is a congressional resolution condemning a school shooting that occurred on September 10, 2025, at Evergreen High School in Evergreen, Colorado, in which a student opened fire and hospitalized two victims. The resolution honors the victims and survivors while extending condolences to their families and the broader Evergreen community, which the sponsors recognize has been profoundly affected by the tragedy. It also recognizes the heroic actions of first responders from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and school security, who arrived within two minutes of the lockdown, as well as the medical staff at CommonSpirit St. Anthony Hospital and Children's Hospital Colorado who treated the wounded. The resolution was submitted by Colorado congressional representatives from both parties on September 16, 2025, and emphasizes that all children should be able to attend school safely. As a resolution rather than legislation, this measure expresses the House's official sentiment and does not create new laws or allocate funding.
