This resolution supports designating April 2026 as the "Month of the Military Child" to recognize and honor the more than 1.6 million children connected to military families across the United States. The resolution acknowledges that military children make significant sacrifices and provide unconditional support to their servicemember parents, and it encourages Americans to participate in ceremonies and activities that show appreciation for these children during that month. The resolution does not establish any new programs, funding, or requirements, but rather serves as a symbolic statement of support from the Senate for recognizing military children's contributions and encouraging public awareness of their unique experiences. Senators Murray and Boozman sponsored the resolution, which was referred to the Senate Armed Services Committee.
