This Senate resolution expresses support for designating July 10, 2025, as Journeyman Lineworkers Recognition Day to honor the electrical workers who maintain America's power grid. The resolution recognizes that journeyman lineworkers work around the clock to keep electricity flowing to homes, businesses, and critical facilities, often risking their lives during natural disasters and extreme weather conditions. The chosen date marks the 129th anniversary of the death of Henry Miller, the first president of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, who was killed while restoring power during an outage in Washington, DC. The resolution affects the hundreds of thousands of lineworkers across the country by formally acknowledging their dangerous and essential work. The Senate passed this resolution on July 10, 2025, encouraging Americans to observe the day with appropriate reflection on these workers' contributions and sacrifices.
