Sen. Eric SchmittR-MO · Aug 1, 2025

Mr. President, a little over a year ago, the unthinkable happened: A former President of the United States was shot on American soil. A patriotic father was killed in cold blood, and two others were left critically injured. This all happened at a peaceful campaign rally in the heart of Pennsylvania.

For the first time in 40 years, a new generation of Americans now carries

the memory of a President under fire. President Trump came within a millisecond and a millimeter of losing his life that day.

Our Nation has a painful history with political violence and has mourned Presidents and watched great leaders cut down in their prime. Political violence is never the answer. We resolve our disputes in this country through elections and through free speech.

So today, I am calling for this unanimous consent of a resolution to unequivocally condemn political violence of any kind and honor the victims of these terrible acts.

One year ago at Butler, we lost a great American, Corey Comperatore, a man who, in the blink of an eye, instinctively shielded his family from gunfire, sacrificing his life in an extraordinary act of courage. We also honor David Dutch and James Copenhaver, who survived critical injuries in the same brutal attack.

These men that day came in peace to participate in the civic life of our Republic, never imagining that they would leave either losing their life or fighting for their lives.

All acts of political violence must be met with swift condemnation from all elected officials, Republican or Democrat.

This resolution further honors other law enforcement officers, first responders, medical personnel, and Secret Service agents who answered the call of duty when it mattered the most. They ran towards danger when America was under attack. These brave men and women served their fellow Americans regardless of their party affiliation or race, sex, or nationality.

It shouldn't be difficult to find bipartisan support to stand against political violence. The assassination attempt of former-President and now-President Trump is not a partisan matter. Standing against violence should never be partisan.

So today, we are saying something very simple but important--that we unequivocally stand against political violence in all forms. I urge my colleagues to stand with me today and pass this resolution.

Mr. President, as if in legislative session and notwithstanding rule XXII, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the consideration of S. Res. 363, which is at the desk.

I ask unanimous consent that the resolution be agreed to, the preamble be agreed to, and the motions to reconsider be considered made and laid upon the table with no intervening action or debate.

Mr. Schmitt (for himself, Mr. Fetterman, Mr. McCormick, Mr. Cassidy, Mr. Justice, Mr. Lee, Mrs. Blackburn, Mr. Ricketts, Mrs. Britt, Ms. Ernst, Mr. Tillis, Mr. Hagerty, Mr. Cornyn, Mr. Hoeven, Mr. Barrasso, Mr. Banks, Mr. Moreno, Mr. Hawley, Mr. Budd, Mr. Mullin, Mr. Cruz, Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Sullivan, Ms. Lummis, Mr. Risch, Mr. Tuberville, Mrs. Moody, and Mr. Marshall) submitted the following resolution; which was considered and agreed to

RESOLUTION

Solemnly marking the one-year anniversary of the attempted assassination of President Donald J. Trump, condemning the multiple attempts against the President’s life, condemning those who incite violence against political officials, and honoring the victims of the shooting.

Whereas, on July 13, 2024, an attempt was made on the life of President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania;

Whereas Corey D. Comperatore tragically died while shielding his family from the gunfire in Butler, Pennsylvania;

Whereas David Dutch and James Copenhaver were critically injured in the attack and hospitalized in Butler, Pennsylvania;

Whereas, during these attacks, law enforcement, first responders, and medical personnel performed their duties with professionalism and heroism;

Whereas, on December 10, 2024, the Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald J. Trump released their Final Report of Findings and Recommendations; and

Whereas continued calls for violence against the President of the United States, violent acts carried out against elected officials like those perpetrated against Governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro, Minnesota State House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman, and Minnesota State Senator John Hoffman, and continued divisive rhetoric targeting elected officials are contradictory to the tradition of the United States and risk undermining the democratic process and endangering the lives of public servants: Now, therefore, be it

That the Senate—

(1)

condemns the assassination attempts against President Donald J. Trump on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Pennsylvania, and on September 15, 2024, in West Palm Beach, Florida;

(2)

honors Corey D. Comperatore, who died while protecting his family from the gunfire at the rally for President Trump;

(3)

honors David Dutch and James Copenhaver, who were critically injured in the gunfire at the rally for President Trump and hospitalized;

(4)

expresses gratitude to the law enforcement officers, first responders, and medical personnel who responded to the attacks, conducted investigations, and provided aid to the victims;

(5)

affirms that the United States Secret Service is the agency responsible for protecting the country’s highest elected officials and is therefore central to upholding the constitutional values of the United States;

(6)

calls on all people of the United States to unite against political violence; and

(7)

condemns those who incite violence against political officials.
