Acknowledging that in the aftermath of September 11, 2001, individuals experienced hate and were targeted by the government on account of their faith, race, national origin and immigration status, and suggesting various forms of relief to support those affected.

This resolution states that the House of Representatives condemns racism, xenophobia, discrimination, and ethnic or religious bigotry. It acknowledges that Arab, Muslim, Middle Eastern, South Asian, and Sikh communities experienced hate and were targeted by government policies after September 11, 2001. It calls for an independent commission to review those policies and recommend ending ones that still target these communities, followed by hearings on its findings. It also supports funding community groups outside law enforcement for hate crime prevention and victim support, and calls on the National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation to study the health effects of hate and profiling.
