HRES 1297 United States House · 118th Congress

Recognizing National Black Brewers Day.

This resolution (HRES 1297) is a symbolic gesture recognizing National Black Brewers Day to honor the contributions of Black brewers in the craft beer industry. It does not create new laws or policies but encourages Congress, the President, and state governments to formally acknowledge the day. The resolution highlights historical milestones, such as Theodore A. Mack, Sr. becoming the first Black brewery president in 1970, and the 2022 formation of the National Black Brewers Association. Its key mechanism is urging federal and state officials to recognize this day, fostering awareness of Black brewers' role in the industry's diversity and innovation.
