This resolution, introduced by Senator Durbin and Senator Duckworth, formally expresses the Senate's condolences on the fourth anniversary of the July 4, 2022 mass shooting at the Highland Park, Illinois Fourth of July parade, which killed seven people and injured 48 others. It names and honors the seven victims who died, and it thanks the dozens of law enforcement agencies, fire departments, dispatch centers, and hospitals across the Chicago area that responded to the tragedy and cared for survivors. The resolution also acknowledges the ongoing trauma experienced by the community and the volunteer counselors who assisted local schools in the aftermath. It affects no laws or funding, as it is a symbolic statement rather than binding legislation, and it closes by expressing solidarity with victims of gun violence nationwide. The measure was referred to the Judiciary Committee, later discharged, and agreed to by the Senate without amendment.
