SR 6 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution condemning the attack on the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021, including the assault on the courageous members of the Capitol Police, and denouncing the use of presidential pardon power to absolve those who participated in the dangerous and anti-democratic riots.

This Senate resolution (SR 6) formally condemns the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack and specifically denounces President Trump's 2025 pardons of 1,500 individuals involved in the riots, including those convicted of assaulting police officers. It highlights the 140+ law enforcement injuries sustained during the attack and cites police unions' criticism of the pardons as undermining accountability. The resolution serves as a symbolic statement expressing disapproval to federal leaders, not a policy change. It directly addresses the federal executive branch's use of pardon power regarding Capitol riot participants.
