 and millions of other individuals2     
,whereas the ,auschwitz concentration   
camp complex in ,nazi-occupied ,poland1 
which included a killing center at      
,birkenau1 was the largest death camp   
complex established by the ,nazi regime2
 ,whereas1 on ,january #bg1 #aide1 the  
,auschwitz extermination camp was       
liberated by ,allied ,forces during     
,world ,war ,,ii1 after almost #e years 

of murder1 rape1 and torture at the     
camp2 ,whereas nearly #a1cjj1jjj        
innocent civilians were deported to     
,auschwitz from their homes across      
,eastern and ,western ,europe1          
particularly from ,hungary1 ,poland1 and
 ,france2 ,whereas nearly #a1ajj1jjj

,auschwitz extermination camp between   
#aidj and #aide2 ,whereas at least      
#ifj1jjj of the nearly #a1ajj1jjj

women1 and other ethnic minorities2     
,whereas these innocent civilians were

starvation1 rape1 medical experiments1  
and being separated from loved ones2    
,whereas the names of many of these     
innocent civilians who perished have    

been lost forever2 ,whereas the         
,auschwitz extermination camp symbolizes
 the extraordinary brutality of the     
,holocaust2 ,whereas the ,united ,states
 ,holocaust ,memorial ,museum teaches   
about and promotes remembrance of the   
,holocaust2 ,whereas the people of the  
,united ,states must never forget the   
terrible crimes against humanity        
committed at the ,auschwitz             
extermination camp2 ,whereas the people 
of the ,united ,states must educate     
future generations to promote           
understanding of the dangers of         
intolerance in order to prevent similar 
injustices1 including acts of violent   
anti-,semitism1 from happening again2   
,whereas1 in recent years1 there has    
been an increase in the number and      
intensity of anti-,semitic incidents in 
the ,united ,states and around the      
world2 ,whereas hate crime statistics   
collected by the ,federal ,bureau of    
,investigation demonstrate a marked rise
 in anti-,semitic incidents in the      

,united ,states over the past several   
years1 and the ,special ,envoy to       
,monitor and ,combat ,anti-,semitism of 
the ,department of ,state recently      
stated that the ,jewish people worldwide
 are facing the worst wave of           
anti-,semitism since the ,holocaust2    
,whereas1 in #bjah1 the ,united ,states 
experienced the single deadliest attack 
against the ,jewish community in the    
history of the ,united ,states with the 
murder of #aa individuals at the ,tree  
of ,life synagogue in ,pittsburgh1      
,pennsylvania2 ,whereas the attack in   
,pittsburgh was followed in #bjai by a  
vicious anti-,semitic attack in ,poway1 
,california1 and later1 by a series of  
violent attacks against the ,orthodox   
,jewish community in the ,state of ,new 
,york2 and ,whereas1 especially in a    
period of rising anti-,semitism1        
commemoration of the liberation of the  
,auschwitz extermination camp will      
instill in all people of the ,united    
,states a greater awareness of the      

,holocaust and knowledge of the horrors 
brought upon by the ,nazi regime's      
systematic murder of #f1jjj1jjj ,jews   
and millions of other innocent          
individuals3 ,now1 therefore1 be it     
,that the ,senate-- 7#a7 commemorates

anniversary of the liberation of the    
,auschwitz extermination camp by ,allied
 ,forces during ,world ,war ,,ii2  7#b7
