Supporting the designation of April 10 as "Dolores Huerta Day", in honor of the accomplishments and legacy of Dolores Huerta.
HRES 1056 is a non-binding House resolution designating April 10 as "Dolores Huerta Day" to honor her legacy. It recognizes Dolores Huerta's work as a civil rights and labor rights activist, including co-founding the United Farm Workers, advocating for farm workers' collective bargaining rights, and promoting women's equality. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but formally supports the commemorative designation. It specifically highlights her role in the 1975 California Agricultural Labor Relations Act and her founding of the Dolores Huerta Foundation. The resolution was introduced by 15 House members in April 2022 and referred to the Oversight Committee.
