HJR 25-1011 Colorado House · 2025 Regular Session

Gold Star Families

HJR 25-1011 is a Colorado legislative resolution honoring Gold Star Families - those who have lost a family member in military service - by expressing the state's gratitude and respect for their sacrifice. It does not create new programs or benefits but symbolically recognizes these families through a formal statement from the Colorado General Assembly. The resolution directs copies to be sent to veterans' organizations including American Gold Star Mothers, Gold Star Wives, and Blue Star Mothers chapters across Colorado. This is a commemorative gesture without concrete policy changes or direct impact on affected individuals.
