Increases the time that mortgage foreclosure notices are required to be provided to active military service members, from nine (9) months to one year, after completion of their active duty.

This bill is a House resolution from the State of Rhode Island that urges the U.S. Congress to authorize the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal or similar recognition for U.S. service members who served in Honduras between 1981 and 1992. The resolution states that these service members faced hostile conditions, terrorist threats, and dangerous circumstances during their deployment, with at least one receiving the Purple Heart and others losing their lives. It requests that the Secretary of State send copies of this resolution to key federal officials, including Senate and House leaders and the Secretary of Defense. The measure does not directly change federal law but serves as a formal recommendation from the Rhode Island House of Representatives to the U.S. Congress.
