Latest Action · May 7, 2025
Submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S2793: 1; text: CR S2801: 1)
This Senate resolution celebrates the 100th anniversary of the Grand Ole Opry, which began in 1925 as the WSM Barn Dance and became officially known as the Grand Ole Opry in 1927. The resolution recognizes the Opry as the longest-running radio show in United States history and acknowledges its role in making Nashville the country music capital of the world. It commemorates the contributions of legendary performers like Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton, and Johnny Cash who performed at the venue's original home in the Ryman Auditorium and later at the Grand Ole Opry House. The resolution affects no specific groups with funding or programs, as it is simply a ceremonial measure passed by the Senate in May 2025 to honor this cultural institution. There are no timelines or funding provisions since this is a commemorative resolution rather than legislation that creates new programs or policies.
