Expressing support for the designation of June 6, 2025, as "National Gun Violence Awareness Day" and June 2025 as "National Gun Violence Awareness Month".
This is a non-binding House resolution that expresses support for designating June 6, 2025 as “National Gun Violence Awareness Day” and June 2025 as “National Gun Violence Awareness Month.” It presents a set of factual statements about gun violence in the United States and honors victims, including noting the birthday of Hadiya Pendleton. The resolution calls on the public to promote gun-violence awareness and safety, wear orange on the designated day, focus attention on gun-violence issues during the summer months, and bring communities together to discuss ways to improve safety. As a resolution, it does not create new laws, funding, or enforceable policies; it serves as a symbolic statement of support and a call to action for awareness and community engagement.
