Expressing support for the designation of September 9, 2025, as "National Firearm Suicide Prevention Day" to educate about the growing firearm suicide crisis in the United States and promote the importance of storing firearms safely and securely as an essential component of suicide prevention.

H. Res. 684 is a non-binding House resolution that expresses support for designating September 9, 2025, as National Firearm Suicide Prevention Day. The resolution aims to educate the public about the firearm suicide crisis in the United States and to promote storing firearms safely and securely as a key part of suicide prevention. It directs attention to the importance of safe storage, and it encourages health professionals and other public health figures to discuss gun ownership, safety, and suicide prevention with their patients. As a resolution, it does not create new laws, funding, or mandatory requirements; rather, it signals congressional support and alignment with existing safety-and-awareness efforts. The bill relies on statistical context about firearm suicides, household firearm access, and youth and veteran risk to justify the need for heightened awareness and education around safe storage. It references ongoing efforts by public health groups and prior governmental reports to frame safe storage as a practical measure to reduce gun-related suicides.
