This resolution, introduced by Senators Ossoff and Warnock, marks the one-year anniversary of a mass shooting that occurred at Fort Stewart, Georgia on August 6, 2025, in which five soldiers were shot and wounded by a fellow soldier. All five victims survived, largely due to the quick actions of unarmed soldiers who subdued the shooter and administered first aid despite putting themselves at risk. The resolution formally honors the victims, commends the soldiers and first responders who acted bravely during the incident, and recognizes those who have supported the Fort Stewart community since the attack, including religious leaders and mental health providers. It expresses the Senate's ongoing support for the victims, their families, and the broader Fort Stewart community. As a commemorative resolution, it carries no funding provisions or binding legal requirements, serving instead as a formal statement of recognition and solidarity.
