Commemorating the 60th anniversary of the War on Poverty and acknowledging its shortcomings.

This resolution commemorates the 60th anniversary of President Johnson's 1964 War on Poverty declaration and acknowledges its historical achievements, such as creating Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP, alongside its shortcomings. It specifically notes the War on Poverty's failure to adequately address fair employment, workforce preparation, and racial disparities in poverty, while recognizing that current antipoverty policies have not adapted to today's challenges. The resolution is purely symbolic, with no new policy requirements, and urges continued efforts to address poverty through existing frameworks.
