RESOLUTION

Calling upon all Americans on this Memorial Day, 2026, to honor the men 
and women of the Armed Forces who have died in the pursuit of freedom 
and peace.

Whereas the preservation of basic freedoms and world peace has always been a 
valued objective of this Nation;
Whereas more than one million United States men and women have selflessly given 
their lives in sacrifice in service as peacemakers and peacekeepers;
Whereas the American people should continue to demonstrate the appreciation and 
gratitude these patriots deserve and to commemorate the ultimate 
sacrifice they made in service to our Nation; and
Whereas Memorial Day is the day of the year to remember the sacrifices made by 
these defenders who now lie in hallowed ground throughout the world and 
serves as an expression of our faith in democracy, our faith in our 
values, and our faith that those who fight for freedom will defeat those 
whose cause is unjust: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) calls on the people of the United States to observe 
Memorial Day as a special day of remembrance to honor the men 
and women of the United States who died in the pursuit of 
freedom and peace; and
(2) believes this should be done as an expression of the 
respect, pride, and admiration felt by every American and by 
every person liberated through the courageous sacrifice and 
valiant toil of the forces of the United States and its allies 
in this noble struggle.
