Referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. (text: CR S4829: 2)
This Senate resolution honors small firearms manufacturers and designates August 2025 as "National Shooting Sports Month." The resolution recognizes the economic and cultural contributions of small businesses that produce handguns, rifles, shotguns, ammunition, and related accessories, noting that the broader shooting sports industry supports approximately 380,000 jobs and generates over $91 billion in annual economic output. The resolution celebrates these manufacturers as important anchors in rural and small-town communities and acknowledges shooting sports—including hunting, target shooting, and competitive marksmanship—as longstanding American recreational traditions that promote safe firearm handling and outdoor stewardship. There is no funding associated with this resolution, as it is a symbolic measure expressing Senate support for these businesses and the shooting sports community rather than directing any spending or establishing new programs.
