HRES 1295 United States House · 118th Congress

Expressing support for the designation of Sunday, June 16, 2024, as "Father's Day".

HRES 1295 is a symbolic resolution expressing the House's support for recognizing Sunday, June 16, 2024, as Father's Day. It does not create new laws or policies but formally acknowledges the role of fathers in families and society. The resolution urges support for existing policy goals like universal paid family leave, affordable childcare, and child tax credits - though it does not mandate any changes. It directly affects all fathers and families in the U.S. by affirming their importance, but has no binding legal effect. This is a procedural resolution, not a legislative bill with concrete policy changes.
