Recognizing June 12, 2025, as this year's observance of "Philippines Independence Day" to honor the 127th anniversary of the independence of the Philippines.

This is a House resolution (H. Res. 505) introduced in the 119th Congress recognizing June 12, 2025 as this year’s observance of Philippines Independence Day to mark the 127th anniversary of Philippine independence. The measure is a symbolic, non-binding statement that commends the Philippines, promotes public awareness of the Philippine Declaration of Independence and Filipino culture, and underscores the enduring U.S.–Philippines friendship. It also affirms support for the Philippines’ right to defend itself against terrorism and honors Filipino and Filipino American service members who have fought alongside the United States, while endorsing the recognition of Philippines Independence Day. The resolution is sponsored by a group of Representatives (Moylan, Scott of Virginia, Kim, Case, King-Hinds, and Radewagen) and was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. It does not create new policy or authorize funding; rather, it expresses congressional sentiment and ceremonial support for the observance and the bilateral relationship.
