A resolution designating September 23, 2023, through October 1, 2023, as "Blue Star Welcome Week".
SRES 335 is a ceremonial Senate resolution designating September 23-October 1, 2023, as "Blue Star Welcome Week." It directly affects military families (including active duty, transitioning veterans, and their dependents) who relocate annually during permanent change-of-station moves. The resolution expresses gratitude for their service, acknowledges challenges in community belonging (citing a 2022 survey), and encourages civilians to welcome military-connected families into their communities. As a symbolic gesture, it does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes this annual observance initiated by Blue Star Families.
