H.Res. 941 designates May 20 as "National Women in Aerospace Day" to honor the contributions of American women in aviation, spaceflight, and related aerospace fields. The resolution highlights pioneering women including Amelia Earhart, Katherine Johnson, Sally Ride, and many others who have shaped the aerospace industry, and notes that women currently represent only about 20 percent of the aerospace workforce. The House calls on Americans to observe this day with appropriate programs and activities while recommitting to ensuring equal opportunities for women in aerospace careers. This is a symbolic resolution with no direct funding or implementation requirements, serving primarily to recognize women's achievements and encourage greater participation in the field.
