Expressing support for the designation of February 2025 as "Hawaiian Language Month" or "'Ōlelo Hawai'i Month".
This resolution expresses the U.S. House of Representatives' support for designating February 2025 as "Hawaiian Language Month" or "Ōlelo Hawai‘i Month." It does not create new laws or funding but aligns with existing federal and state efforts to preserve the Hawaiian language, referencing the 1978 state constitutional recognition and the 2022 Native American Language Resource Center Act. The resolution urges the public and organizations to celebrate the month through activities promoting the language’s use and revitalization. As a non-binding resolution, it directly affects no specific group but symbolically supports ongoing cultural preservation efforts.
