HRES 1010 United States House · 118th Congress

Supporting the designation of February 2024 as "Hawaiian Language Month" or "'Olelo Hawai'i Month".

HRES 1010 is a symbolic resolution supporting the designation of February 2024 as "Hawaiian Language Month" or "'Ōlelo Hawai'i Month." It recognizes the Hawaiian language's historical significance to Native Hawaiians, its near extinction due to past policies, and ongoing revitalization efforts like immersion schools. The resolution urges the U.S. public and organizations to celebrate the month through activities promoting the language, aligning with existing federal policies like the Native American Languages Act. It does not create new laws or allocate funding but serves as a ceremonial endorsement of language preservation.
