H.Res. 234 is a symbolic resolution expressing the House of Representatives' support for designating March as "Zoroastrian Legacy and Heritage Month." The resolution celebrates Zoroastrianism, one of the world's oldest monotheistic religions that originated in ancient Persia, and highlights its historical contributions to human rights, democracy, and civilization. The resolution notes that the last month of the traditional Zoroastrian calendar falls in March and is devoted to Mother Earth, while the spring festival of Nowruz on the vernal equinox symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness and is a significant date in the Zoroastrian faith. This resolution does not create any new law, require funding, or establish binding obligations—it is a non-binding expression of support from Congress to honor the religious and cultural heritage of the Zoroastrian community in the United States.
