[S. Res. 365 Introduced in Senate
(IS) ]
<DOC>
119th CONGRESS
1st Session
S. RES. 365
Designating August 1, 2025, as ``Gold Star Children's Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
August 1, 2025
Mr. Wicker (for himself and Mr. Kelly) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Designating August 1, 2025, as ``Gold Star Children's Day''.
Whereas the recognition of Gold Star Families in the United States dates back to
World War I, when the families of fallen members of the Armed Forces
displayed a service flag with a gold star in the window of their homes;
Whereas, in 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law legislation
declaring Gold Star Mother's Day, now known as ``Gold Star Mother's and
Family's Day'', a national observance honoring the mothers of fallen
members of the Armed Forces annually on the last Sunday of September;
Whereas, since 2010, the Senate has honored Gold Star Spouses by resolution
annually on April 5, recognizing the unique sacrifices made by spouses
of fallen members of the Armed Forces;
Whereas many thousands of children of military families have lost parents who
served in the Armed Forces and also deserve national recognition for the
burden and legacy they carry; and
Whereas, since 2021, the Senate has honored Gold Star Children by resolution
annually on August 1, recognizing the debt of gratitude owed to children
of fallen members of the Armed Forces by the people of the United States
as part of the debt owed to the members of the Armed Forces who
sacrificed all in protecting the freedom of the United States and the
people of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate--
(1) designates August 1, 2025, as ``Gold Star Children's
Day'';
(2) honors the sacrifices and hardships of the children of
fallen members of the Armed Forces; and
(3) encourages the people of the United States to observe
Gold Star Children's Day in support of children of the fallen
members of the Armed Forces of the United States.
