Censuring Pramila Jayapal, Representative of the 7th Congressional District of Washington.

HRES 606 is a resolution passed by the U.S. House of Representatives to formally censure Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) for her July 15, 2023, remarks describing Israel as a "racist state" and advocating for Palestinian self-determination, which the resolution characterizes as antisemitic. The resolution also references her 2021 co-sponsorship of legislation opposing U.S. arms sales to Israel during a Hamas rocket attack on Israel. It requires Jayapal to appear in the House chamber for the Speaker to publicly read the censure resolution. This symbolic action, without legal penalties, serves as the House's formal expression of disapproval.
