H.Res. 956 is a symbolic resolution that condemns an antisemitic shooting that occurred at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney, Australia on December 14, 2025. The resolution expresses the House's strong opposition to this act of violence and extends condolences to the victims, their families, and the Australian people. It affirms the right of all people to worship freely and safely, reiterates the U.S. commitment to combating antisemitism and terrorism, and calls on the Australian government to take action to protect its Jewish community. This is a non-binding resolution that does not appropriate funds or establish new policies, but rather serves as an official statement of congressional sentiment against religious hatred and violence.
