BE
IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF OHIO:

WHEREAS,
The month of February is designated in this state and in the nation
as Black History Month to honor and recognize the contributions that
African Americans have made in the history of this state and the
United States; and

WHEREAS,
Former President Barack Obama served as the forty-fourth president of
the United States and is recognized as the first African American to
serve our country as president; and

WHEREAS,
On February 5, 2026, during Black History Month, President Donald
Trump posted a video on the Truth Social media platform that depicted
former President Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, in a racist,
disrespectful manner, superimposing their faces on the bodies of apes
in a jungle; now therefore be it

RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th
General Assembly of the State of Ohio, fully condemn and disapprove
of President Trump's actions and stand against such divisive
behavior; and be it further

RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit duly
authenticated copies of this resolution to the members of the Ohio
Congressional delegation and the news media of Ohio.
