HRES 266 United States House · 119th Congress

Expressing support for the designation of March 27, 2025, as "Tuskegee Airmen Commemoration Day", and calling on each State, the District of Columbia, and each territory to recognize the Tuskegee Airmen for their heroism, valor, and exemplary service to the Nation.

This resolution expresses support for designating March 27, 2025, as "Tuskegee Airmen Commemoration Day" and calls on all states, the District of Columbia, and territories to recognize the Tuskegee Airmen's WWII service. It highlights their combat record (over 15,000 sorties), their "Double Victory" against fascism abroad and racism at home, and their role in inspiring military desegregation. The resolution serves as a symbolic gesture to honor their legacy without creating new legal requirements or funding. It does not impose obligations on states or alter existing policies.
