House Roll Call 305

119th Congress · Session 1 · November 21, 2025

The vote on whether to adopt the resolution

A resolution is one chamber speaking for itself — setting its own rules, taking a position, honouring someone — and it never goes to the President. Agreeing to it is the whole decision.

What was being voted on

119-HCONRES-58 — Denouncing the horrors of socialism.

This concurrent resolution denounces socialism in all its forms and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States. The text states that socialist ideology requires a concentration of power that repeatedly collapses into communist regimes, totalitarian rule, and brutal dictatorships. It highlights that socialism has led to famine, mass murders, and the killing of over 100,000,000 people worldwide. The resolution points to historical crimes committed by socialist ideologues such as Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro, and others.
