Expressing support for the recognition of August 17 through August 23, 2025, as "Warehouse Worker Recognition Week", the national event celebrating the workers in the logistics industry.
HRES 649 is a symbolic resolution expressing congressional support for designating August 17-23, 2025, as "Warehouse Worker Recognition Week." It directly acknowledges warehouse workers in the logistics industry - over 1.8 million employees who support supply chains, transport goods, and work in challenging conditions like extreme heat. The resolution urges increased public awareness of their contributions, recognizes them as frontline workers, and commits to reducing workplace injuries. It does not create new laws or funding but formally endorses a national observance to celebrate their role in the economy.
