This resolution designates the week of September 27 through October 3, 2026, as "Religious Education Week" to honor religious education programs across the United States. The resolution affirms the Senate's support for religious education in the civic and moral development of Americans, citing historical figures like the Founders and Supreme Court decisions that protect religious instruction. The bill celebrates schools and organizations that provide religious education to children and calls on all 50 states, U.S. territories, and Washington D.C. to allow students to be released from public school to attend religious classes. The resolution notes that approximately 4.35 million children currently attend religious schools and about 540,000 public school students participate in released time religious programs annually. This is a symbolic measure with no direct funding or enforcement mechanisms; it simply establishes an official week for recognizing the role of religious education in American society.
