CER 26-0065 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

September 11th Emergency and First Responders Remembrance and Recognition Resolution of 2025

This is a ceremonial resolution (CER 26-0065), not a law with policy changes. It formally honors the District of Columbia Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department for its service following the September 11, 2001 attacks, specifically recognizing their role in Pentagon rescue efforts and ongoing dedication. The resolution commemorates the 24th anniversary of 9/11, acknowledges the health risks faced by first responders, and pays tribute to their bravery. It has no legal effect or funding provisions - it is purely a symbolic statement of respect.

MODERATE

This document shows the transition of a ceremonial resolution from an introduction draft to its enrolled (final) version. The substantive content remains largely the same, with minor formatting and text adjustments. The main change is the addition of bill number 26-65 and the date July 1, 2025, indicating this is now the official enrolled version ready for signing.

TECHNICAL

Added bill number 26-65 and date July 1, 2025 to identify this as the enrolled original version

Changed '24th Anniversary' to '21 years since 2001' in one WHEREAS clause, likely a correction to reflect the actual time period

Changed '12 victims' to '12 victims' (removing 'nearly' before 3,000 people) for precision in the first WHEREAS clause

Removed signature lines for council members that were present in the introduction draft but not needed in the enrolled version
