Senate Resolution 901 is a symbolic measure expressing support for Transgender Day of Remembrance and recognizing what supporters characterize as an epidemic of violence against transgender people in the United States. The resolution memorializes at least 38 transgender and gender nonconforming individuals killed in the U.S. between October 1, 2023, and September 30, 2024, and notes that an additional 327 were murdered worldwide during that period. The resolution highlights disparities affecting transgender people, including high rates of homelessness, suicide attempts, and barriers to healthcare and employment, with particular emphasis on violence targeting Black transgender women. As a Senate resolution, this measure does not create law, appropriate funds, or establish timelines; instead, it serves as an expression of the chamber's position calling for government action to protect transgender people and prevent violence against them.
