Resolutions memorializing the Congress of the United States to declare the city of Quincy as the most patriotic city in America
HD 2187 is a symbolic resolution (not a law) requesting Congress to declare Quincy, Massachusetts, "the most patriotic city in America." It lists historical connections, including Quincy being the birthplace of two presidents, home to presidential libraries, resting place of presidents and veterans, and site of the nation's oldest Flag Day parade. The resolution asks the Massachusetts General Court to urge Congress to make this declaration and forward copies to congressional leaders. This is purely ceremonial with no direct policy impact or funding changes; it seeks recognition, not legislative action.
