A Resolution recognizing the week of June 22 through 28, 2026, as "Amateur Radio Week" in Pennsylvania.
This resolution designates the week of June 22 through 28, 2026, as "Amateur Radio Week" in Pennsylvania to honor the contributions of licensed amateur radio operators, known as "hams." The measure highlights the community's role in providing free communications for public events and emergency services, including weather spotting and disaster response. It specifically acknowledges the upcoming "Amateur Radio Field Day" exercise, which demonstrates the group's ability to maintain independent communications during emergencies. The bill is a symbolic gesture with no changes to laws or regulations.
