WASHINGTON: A group of US lawmakers, including Indian-American Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, has introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives to call out the hatred, xenophobia, and racism that plagued Arab, Muslim, South Asian and Sikh communities across America following the 9/11 terror attack.

Arab, Muslim, West Asian, South Asian and Sikh communities have long experienced discrimination and violence in the US, which intensified after the attacks.
