SJR 262 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Memorials, Recognition - "General Pulaski Memorial Day" in Pulaski -

This bill is a commemorative resolution designating October 11 as "General Pulaski Memorial Day" in Tennessee. It honors Brigadier General Casimir Pulaski, a Revolutionary War hero who died from wounds sustained at the 1779 Siege of Savannah, by encouraging public observances on that date. The resolution does not create new laws, taxes, or programs - it solely recognizes Pulaski's contributions as a military leader and "Father of American Cavalry." It passed the Tennessee legislature in March 2025 to align with historical remembrance.
