National Rosie the Riveter Day Act

Bill 119 HR 2256, also known as the "National Rosie the Riveter Day" bill, aims to amend title 36 of the United States Code to designate a specific day as "National Rosie the Riveter Day." The bill requests the President to issue an annual proclamation recognizing this day.

The term "Rosie the Riveter" refers to the women who worked in factories and shipyards during World War II, contributing to the war effort by building planes, tanks, and other essential supplies. These women played a crucial role in the war effort and helped pave the way for gender equality in the workforce.

By designating a national day to honor Rosie the Riveters, this bill seeks to recognize and celebrate the contributions of these women to the war effort and to American history. It also aims to raise awareness of the important role that women have played in the workforce and in shaping the nation's history. If passed, this bill would serve as a way to honor and remember the sacrifices and contributions of Rosie the Riveters, ensuring that their legacy is not forgotten. It would also provide an opportunity for the nation to reflect on the progress that has been made in terms of gender equality in the workforce.
