Submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S6959; text: CR S6959)
This resolution honors the military personnel and their families who participated in Operation Midnight Hammer, a major U.S. military strike against Iranian nuclear facilities that took place on June 21, 2025. The operation involved seven B-2 Spirit stealth bombers from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri dropping 14 massive bunker-buster bombs on Iran's Fordow and Natanz nuclear enrichment plants, supported by escort aircraft, a U.S. submarine launching Tomahawk missiles, and complex in-flight refueling during an 18-hour mission. The resolution recognizes this as the largest B-2 operational strike in U.S. history and commends the technical expertise and bravery of pilots, maintainers, analysts, sailors, and support personnel involved in what it describes as a mission that "devastated the Iranian nuclear program." The resolution is symbolic and does not authorize any funding or establish timelines, but formally acknowledges the strategic significance of the operation and the sacrifices made by military families.
