Condemning the attacks on Minnesota lawmakers in Brooklyn Park and Champlin, Minnesota, and calling for unity and the rejection of political violence in Minnesota and across the United States.

It honors the victims, commends law enforcement for preventing further harm, and calls on elected officials and the public to reject political violence.

MODERATE

This is a procedural transition from the Introduced (IH) to Engrossed (EH) version of HRES 519, a resolution condemning the June 14, 2025 attacks on Minnesota lawmakers. No substantive policy changes were made. The differences are limited to standard formatting adjustments for engrossment, two minor grammatical corrections, and the addition of the clerk's signature line.

TECHNICAL

Two minor grammar fixes: 'wishes for their full and speedy recovery' changed to 'wishes their full and speedy recovery,' and 'denounces acts of political violence' corrected to 'denounce acts of political violence' for subject-verb agreement.

The sponsor submission language ('Ms. Morrison (for herself, Ms. McCollum, Mr. Emmer, Mr. Stauber, Ms. Craig, Ms. Omar, Mrs. Fischbach, and Mr. Finstad) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform') was removed, as is standard when a bill moves to engrossed status.

Clerk signature line 'Kevin F. McCumber, Clerk.' was added at the end, standard for engrossed documents.

Date updated from June 17, 2025 to June 25, 2025, reflecting the engrossment date rather than the introduction date.
