A resolution to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald.
This Senate Resolution (SR 84) is a symbolic commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the 1975 sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald, which claimed all 29 crew members. It designates November 10, 2025, as "Edmund Fitzgerald Day" and directs the Senate to send copies of the resolution to the crew's families, maritime organizations, and Great Lakes history museums. The resolution honors the tragedy's historical significance and the crew's legacy without creating new laws or affecting any specific group through policy changes.
