This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' support for celebrating a "National Day of Honor and Respect" alongside the existing "Constitution Day and Citizenship Day" on September 17. The measure honors the contributions of immigrants and Americans from diverse backgrounds, emphasizing the nation's founding principles of unity expressed through the motto "E Pluribus Unum" (Out of Many, One). The resolution encourages positive interactions among citizens, commits to reducing hate and discrimination, and promotes civic education and public service across communities. It was introduced in June 2026 and reflects on America's history of overcoming divisiveness while marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. This is a non-binding resolution that takes no direct action but signals congressional support for a celebratory observance aimed at promoting national unity and respect for diverse backgrounds.
