A resolution supporting the designation of May 29, 2025, as "Mental Health Awareness in Agriculture Day" to raise awareness around mental health in the agricultural industry and workforce and to continue to reduce stigma associated with mental illness.

This is a non-binding Senate resolution (S. Res. 143) designating May 29, 2025, as “Mental Health Awareness in Agriculture Day.” It aims to raise awareness about mental health needs within the agricultural industry and workforce and to continue reducing stigma around mental illness. The resolution cites substantial mental health and suicide risks among farmers and farmworkers and links the designation to National Mental Health Awareness Month in May. It highlights the Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network (a USDA resource) as a mechanism to connect agricultural producers and workers with stress-support programs, and it encourages observance of the day to promote mental well-being for current and future agricultural participants. The bill is a symbolic, commemorative measure. It does not create new programs, authorize spending, or impose requirements on individuals or governments. Instead, it publicly signals congressional backing for mental health awareness in farming and farming communities and points to existing USDA resources for support.
