I, and also on behalf of Senators Sterle and Griff, move:

That the Senate—

(a) condemns the shocking attack on worshippers at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on 27 October 2018;

(b) extends its sympathies to the families of those killed and injured and to the Jewish community in the United States, Australia and throughout the world; and

(c) praises the actions of the first responders who put duty before their own safety.

Question agreed to.
