HR 242 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution recognizing June 6, 2026, as "D-Day" in Pennsylvania.

This bill is a symbolic resolution, not a law with policy changes. It asks the Pennsylvania General Assembly to officially commemorate June 6, 2025 - the 81st anniversary of D-Day - as "D-Day" within Pennsylvania. The resolution encourages local governments and communities to hold observances honoring the historical event and its sacrifices, but it imposes no new requirements or obligations on citizens, businesses, or state agencies. It is purely commemorative, reflecting on the 1944 Allied invasion of Normandy.
