This resolution expresses Senate support for designating September 11 through September 17, 2026, as "Patriot Week" to honor American history and founding principles. The week includes September 17, which marks Constitution Day, the anniversary of the Constitutional Convention's signing of the Constitution in 1787. The resolution emphasizes the importance of understanding American history, celebrating the nation's founding documents and historical figures, and encourages citizens, schools, and government agencies to participate in recognizing this designated week. The resolution does not create any funding requirements or establish binding obligations, as resolutions are expressions of congressional sentiment rather than laws. It calls on Americans to reflect on core values like democracy, liberty, equality, and diversity during this week.
