Recognizing Black History Month as an important time to celebrate the remarkable and unique contributions of all LGBTQI+ Black Americans in United States history.

HRES 160 is a non-binding House resolution recognizing Black History Month as a time to honor the contributions of LGBTQI+ Black Americans throughout U.S. history. It commemorates specific historical figures and advocates without creating new laws or policies. The resolution highlights the unique intersection of racial, LGBTQI+, and social justice contributions, including figures like Marsha P. Johnson, James Baldwin, and Alvin Ailey. As a symbolic gesture, it has no legislative effect but aims to raise awareness of underrepresented historical narratives.
