IV 116th CONGRESS 1st Session H. RES. 641 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES October 18, 2019 Mr. Grijalva (for himself, Miss González-Colón of Puerto Rico , Mr. San Nicolas , Mr. Sablan , and Ms. Plaskett ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary , and in addition to the Committee on Natural Resources , for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned RESOLUTION Acknowledging that the decisions rendered by the United States Supreme Court in the so-called Insular Cases rest on the same racist and ethnocentric assumptions leading to Plessy v. Ferguson’s infamous separate but equal doctrine, that the legal doctrine emanating from the Insular Cases has no place in United States Constitutional law, and that the Insular Cases must be rejected in their entirety.
