Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This resolution designates the week of September 20 through September 26, 2026, as "Gold Star Families Remembrance Week" to honor military families who have lost loved ones in service. Gold Star Families are those who have experienced the death of a family member serving in the Armed Forces, and a gold star symbolizes this sacrifice. The resolution notes that while Gold Star Mother's Day has been recognized since 1936, there is currently no dedicated national observance for all Gold Star Families affected by military loss. The measure encourages Americans to observe this week by performing community service and celebrating the lives of those who died serving the country. No funding or ongoing implementation is required, as this is a symbolic designation supporting a one-time observance.
