Recognizing linemen, the profession of linemen, the contributions of these brave men and women who protect public safety, and expressing support for the designation of April 18, 2025, as "National Lineman Appreciation Day".

H. Res. 337 is a non-binding House Resolution introduced in the 119th Congress recognizing linemen—the workers who build, operate, and maintain the electrical grid—as a profession with deep personal, family, and professional traditions. The measure expresses support for designating April 18, 2025, as “National Lineman Appreciation Day.” It also emphasizes that linemen are essential public safety contributors who often work in dangerous conditions, including during storms and other emergencies, to keep electricity flowing and to support the economy. As a resolution, it serves as a formal expression of Congress’ recognition and support rather than creating new laws or spending. The resolution was introduced by Rep. Rouzer (with a broad list of cosponsors) and referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce. It does not authorize funding or require government action beyond recognition, and it would simply designate a day nationwide for appreciation of linemen if enacted.
