This Senate resolution commemorates the fifth anniversary of the Champlain Towers South condominium building collapse in Surfside, Florida, which occurred on June 24, 2021, killing 98 people. The resolution honors the victims and their families while recognizing the extraordinary response efforts that followed the disaster, including rescue and recovery teams from across the United States and international crews from Israel and Mexico who worked around the clock to search for survivors. The resolution also acknowledges the National Institute of Standards and Technology's formal investigation into the cause of the collapse. As a commemorative resolution, this legislation does not authorize any funding or create new policies, but instead expresses the Senate's recognition of the tragedy and its support for the Surfside community and survivors.
