A resolution designating April 5, 2024, as "Gold Star Wives Day".
SRES 615 designates April 5, 2024, as "Gold Star Wives Day" to honor surviving spouses of military members who died in service and recognize the 79th anniversary of the first meeting of Gold Star Wives of America, Inc. (held on April 5, 1945). The resolution encourages public observance to raise awareness of the organization's role in supporting military families through services, friendship, and advocacy. As a ceremonial resolution, it does not create new policies or funding but serves as a symbolic tribute to these families and the nonprofit's longstanding mission.
