A resolution recognizing the accomplishments of President Donald J. Trump and recommending that he be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026.
This is a Senate resolution (S. Res. 460) introduced in the 119th Congress by Senators Cassidy and Barrasso. It is a non-binding, symbolic statement that acknowledges President Donald J. Trump's actions related to Operation Warp Speed—a U.S. effort to accelerate development, production, and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines and therapies. The resolution commends the administration for partnering with the private sector and investing federal resources to save lives and revitalize economies, and it formally recommends that President Trump be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026. Because it is a resolution, it does not create or modify law or funding; its purpose is to express congressional support and opinion and to promote a political narrative. The measure has been referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
