SOLIDARITY WITH CONGRESSWOMEN OF COLOUR

That this House endorses the letter of support put together by the Hope Not Hate campaign expressing solidarity with, and for, Representative Rashida Tlaib, Representative Ilhan Omar, Representative Ayanna Pressley and Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez; condemns without equivocation the inflammatory, hurtful and racist comments from the President of the United States; expresses its solidarity with the democratically elected Members of Congress that the President of the United States targeted with his appalling comments; rededicates itself to standing up for tolerance, inclusion and diversity and pledges to fight bigotry and hatred wherever it finds it, at home and abroad; and reiterates the call and need for national parliaments and legislatures, across the world, to look like the communities they seek to serve.
