Expressing support for the month of May as "Fallen Heroes Memorial Month".
This resolution (HRES 1188) asks the President to issue an annual proclamation designating the month of May as "Fallen Heroes Memorial Month" to honor U.S. military members who died in service. It does not create new laws or benefits but requests the President to formally recognize this designation each year. The resolution urges Americans to reflect on the sacrifices of over 1.3 million fallen service members and their families, and to support veteran organizations. It is a symbolic gesture focused on commemoration, not policy change.
