About This Bill
Passed
Latest Action · June 8, 2026
Submitted in the Senate, considered, and agreed to without amendment and with a preamble by Unanimous Consent. (consideration: CR S2670; text: CR S2666)
This Senate resolution designates June 11, 2026, as "National Seersucker Day," every following Thursday through the last Thursday of August 2026 as "Seersucker Thursday," and the entire month of June 2026 as "Seersucker Appreciation Month." It is a symbolic, ceremonial measure that carries no funding or legal requirements, but instead honors the seersucker fabric's history in the United States, particularly its Southern roots and its long-standing tradition in the Senate dating back to 1996. The resolution encourages senators, local governments, and the public to wear seersucker clothing and promote awareness of the fabric during the designated period. It also pays tribute to the late Senator Dianne Feinstein for her role in reviving the Senate's Seersucker Thursday tradition and notes that Senator Raphael Warnock will continue the practice. This bill affects no specific group in a substantive way, as it primarily serves as a cultural and historical recognition rather than a policy change.
