HRES 1233 United States House · 118th Congress

Supporting the goals and ideals of National Honor Our LGBT Elders Day.

HRES 1233 is a symbolic resolution supporting National Honor Our LGBT Elders Day. It does not create new laws or allocate funds but encourages federal, state, and local entities to observe the day through programs raising awareness about health disparities and unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ older adults. The resolution specifically urges healthcare providers to offer culturally competent care and calls for prioritizing the health and human rights of LGBTQ+ elders in government and aid efforts. It directly affects LGBTQ+ elders by highlighting their needs, though it has no binding legislative effect.
