Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' support for recognizing September 7, 2026, as "Liturgical Dance Day" and acknowledges the International Dance Commission's contributions to the creative arts and worship communities. The resolution highlights that liturgical dance is practiced in thousands of ministries across the nation on Sunday mornings and notes that dance ministers provide valuable community programs, particularly for inner-city youth, teaching discipline and a love of dance. The International Dance Commission is described as a multicultural organization that serves as a resource for dance, worship arts ministries, and dance companies worldwide. This resolution does not create any new funding, laws, or enforcement mechanisms; it is a symbolic measure expressing congressional support for the day and the organization's work in their communities.
