HRES 784 United States House · 118th Congress

Supporting the designation of October 15, 2023, as "National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day" and recognizing the people who have lost a pregnancy or an infant.

This resolution (HRES 784) symbolically designates October 15, 2023, as "National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day" to honor individuals and families who have experienced pregnancy loss or infant death. It asks the House to support the day’s goals, recognize the emotional impact of these losses, and request the President issue a proclamation encouraging public observance. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but aims to raise awareness and reduce stigma around pregnancy and infant loss, which affects an estimated 1 million U.S. families annually. It directly acknowledges the experiences of those who have endured such losses without proposing concrete policy changes.
