Summary of Bill HRES 266

Bill 119 H.Res. 266, also known as the "Tuskegee Airmen Commemoration Day" bill, aims to designate March 27, 2025, as a day to honor and recognize the Tuskegee Airmen for their bravery, courage, and outstanding service to the United States.

By designating March 27, 2025, as "Tuskegee Airmen Commemoration Day" and urging widespread recognition of their legacy, this bill seeks to ensure that the courage and achievements of the Tuskegee Airmen are never forgotten and continue to inspire future generations of Americans.
