Expressing support for the recognition of March 10, 2023, as "Abortion Provider Appreciation Day".
HCONRES 23 is a non-binding resolution expressing Congress's support for recognizing March 10, 2023, as "Abortion Provider Appreciation Day." It honors abortion providers and clinic staff for delivering essential reproductive healthcare amid increased restrictions following the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade. The resolution condemns the Dobbs ruling, affirms Congress's commitment to protecting providers' safety, and emphasizes ensuring access to abortion care. As a symbolic gesture, it does not create new laws or change existing policies.
