RESOLUTION

Expressing the sense of the Senate that public servants should be 
commended for their dedication and continued service to the United 
States during Public Service Recognition Week and throughout the year.

Whereas the week of May 3, 2026, through May 9, 2026, has been designated as 
``Public Service Recognition Week'' to honor employees of the Federal 
Government and State and local governments, and members of the uniformed 
services, for their contributions to the United States;
Whereas Public Service Recognition Week provides an opportunity to recognize and 
promote the important contributions of public servants and to honor the 
people who serve the United States at all levels of government and as 
members of the uniformed services;
Whereas millions of individuals serve the public in government service and as 
members of the uniformed services in every State, county, and city 
across the United States and around the world;
Whereas public servants provide crucial services to millions of people across 
the United States, supporting local programs and contributing to local 
economies;
Whereas public service is a noble calling involving a variety of challenging and 
rewarding professions and highly skilled and trained individuals 
offering their knowledge, effort, and skills in support of the public; 
and
Whereas the United States is a great and prosperous country, and public service 
employees contribute significantly to that greatness and prosperity: 
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate--
(1) commends the dedication, professionalism, and 
patriotism of the public servants of the United States who 
fulfill their constitutional oath and deliver essential 
services to the people of the United States;
(2) recognizes the indispensable role of public servants in 
strengthening the economy of the United States, protecting the 
safety and security of the public, safeguarding individual 
rights, and sustaining the foundations of democratic self-
governance;
(3) honors the contributions of all public servants during 
Public Service Recognition Week, May 3, 2026, through May 9, 
2026, and throughout the year; and
(4) calls upon the people of the United States to observe 
Public Service Recognition Week with appropriate programs, 
ceremonies, and activities that honor and acknowledge the 
service of those who work on their behalf.
