H.Con.Res.107 - Recognizing the importance of saving lives, reducing gun violence, and strengthening public safety as the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary.
This concurrent resolution is a statement of congressional values rather than a law that creates new programs or funding. It recognizes the country's 250th anniversary in 2026 as an opportunity to recommit to reducing gun violence and strengthening public safety. The resolution acknowledges that gun violence is a leading cause of death in the United States, with approximately 125 people killed daily by guns, and emphasizes that solutions exist, including community violence intervention programs, background checks, and law enforcement partnerships. The resolution honors those lost to gun violence and commends community leaders, law enforcement, and advocates working to prevent it. While the resolution expresses support for expanded funding for victim services and community-based violence prevention strategies, it does not appropriate any specific funds or create binding requirements, as concurrent resolutions are expressions of congressional sentiment rather than enforceable legislation.
