Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution expresses support for designating September 13-19, 2026, as "National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week" to raise awareness about adult education programs and their importance to the economy. The resolution highlights that millions of American adults lack high school credentials or have limited English proficiency, and emphasizes that adult education programs help workers gain skills needed for employment, career advancement, and economic mobility. The measure also recognizes the impact of parental education on children's success and calls for stronger partnerships between education providers, employers, workforce development systems, and community organizations to expand access to adult literacy and skills training. There is no funding or implementation timeline specified in this resolution, as it is a symbolic measure expressing congressional support rather than authorizing government programs or appropriating money.
