A resolution supporting the goals and objectives of Choose Respect Day.

This resolution (SRES 431) is a non-binding Senate statement supporting Choose Respect Day, observed annually on October 1. It references documented statistics on intimate partner violence (including 12 million annual reports and 3 women killed daily by partners) to emphasize the need for awareness. The resolution encourages all citizens, organizations, and government entities to recognize October 1 through public recognition and educational activities aimed at changing cultural attitudes toward domestic violence. It does not create new laws or policies but formally supports existing awareness efforts.
