Recognizing the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children and expressing support for the designation of April 2024 as the "Month of the Military Child".

HRES 1151 is a symbolic resolution recognizing the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children and designating April 2024 as "Month of the Military Child." It directly affects military-connected children (over 1.5 million in the U.S.) who face frequent school transitions due to parental service. The resolution expresses congressional support for the Compact - which helps streamline educational transitions for military students - and encourages nationwide recognition through events like "Purple Up!" to honor these children. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new policies or funding but aims to raise awareness of military-connected students' educational challenges.
