H.Res. 483 is a commemorative resolution recognizing the 250th anniversary of the United States Army, which was established on June 14, 1775, by the Second Continental Congress. The resolution honors the Army's historical achievements and the service of soldiers across 250 years, highlighting notable battles and the core military values of loyalty, duty, honor, integrity, and personal courage. Rather than creating new programs or appropriating funds, this resolution simply expresses Congress's appreciation for the Army and its soldiers, and encourages the American public to observe the anniversary through ceremonies and commemorative activities. The measure was introduced in June 2025 by Representative Jason Crow and co-sponsored by members from both parties. As a House resolution, it does not require Senate approval or presidential signature and carries symbolic rather than binding legal force.
