This is a Senate resolution celebrating the 65th anniversary of the Peace Corps, which President Kennedy established on March 1, 1961. The resolution honors nearly 250,000 American volunteers who have served in 144 countries over the past six and a half decades, working in fields like education, health, agriculture, and community development. The resolution recognizes the Peace Corps' role in promoting global peace and improving international perceptions of the United States through cultural exchange and grassroots partnership rather than military or political intervention. It also highlights how returned Peace Corps volunteers bring valuable language skills, cultural knowledge, and technical expertise that benefit the American workforce and enhance the nation's diplomatic and economic standing. This is a ceremonial resolution with no direct funding or implementation requirements; it simply expresses Senate recognition of the Peace Corps' contributions to American foreign policy and global development.
