Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
This is a commemorative resolution honoring Dr. Edwin J. Feulner Jr., a prominent conservative figure who passed away on July 18, 2025, at age 83. Dr. Feulner founded the Republican Study Committee in 1973 and served as President of the Heritage Foundation for 36 years, helping shape conservative policy and influence within Congress. The resolution acknowledges his educational achievements, his role in expanding the Heritage Foundation from a small organization to a major force in American conservatism, and his recognition with the Presidential Citizens Medal in 1989. The House of Representatives expresses its condolences to his family and suggests that the President posthumously award Dr. Feulner the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor. This resolution does not create any new programs, funding, or legal requirements—it is solely a formal expression of respect for Dr. Feulner's life and contributions to the conservative movement.
