Supporting the designation of July 21, 2025, as "Guam Liberation Day".

This is a House Resolution (H. Res. 541) introduced in the 119th Congress. It would designate July 21, 2025, as “Guam Liberation Day” to honor the liberation of Guam from Imperial Japanese occupation during World War II. The measure provides substantial historical context about Guam’s wartime experiences, including the occupation, massacres, the Manenggon concentration camps, and the Marianas Campaign that began with the July 21, 1944 assault at Asan Bay. The resolution is ceremonial in nature and non-binding; it does not create new law or funding. It also requests the President issue a proclamation urging observance and appropriate ceremonies across the United States to recognize those who fought for Guam’s liberation.
