Referred to the Committee on Education and Workforce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.Res. 512 is a symbolic resolution expressing Congress's support for recognizing Father's Day on Sunday, June 15, 2025. The resolution honors fathers and their contributions to families and society, noting that Father's Day has been a permanent national holiday since 1972. Beyond the ceremonial designation, the resolution advocates for several family support policies, including universal paid family and medical leave, affordable child care, and an expanded monthly child tax credit. The resolution does not create any new law, establish funding, or create binding requirements—it simply expresses the House's position that fathers should be celebrated and supported through these policy measures. Sixteen House members, led by Representative Jimmy Gomez, introduced the resolution.
