This Senate resolution designates the week of September 11 through September 17, 2026, as "Patriot Week," a symbolic recognition rather than a law requiring funding or enforcement. It honors the founding principles of the United States, including the rule of law, liberty, and equality, and highlights historical figures such as George Washington, Frederick Douglass, and Martin Luther King Jr., along with foundational documents like the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The timing connects the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks with Constitution Day on September 17, encouraging Americans to reflect on both tragedy and civic heritage. The resolution encourages citizens, schools, and government bodies at all levels to participate by studying and celebrating American history and values during this week. It carries no binding legal requirements or appropriations, serving instead as an expression of the Senate's support for the observance.
