Supporting the designation of July 21, 2024, as "Guam Liberation Day".
HRES 1335 is a non-binding resolution designating July 21, 2024, as "Guam Liberation Day" to commemorate the U.S. military's liberation of Guam from Japanese occupation on July 21, 1944. It directly affects Guam's community by honoring the island's historical resilience, the CHamoru people's suffering during the 1941-1944 occupation, and the U.S. military's role in the Pacific campaign. The resolution's key mechanism is a formal House endorsement of this commemorative date, urging the President to issue a proclamation encouraging public observance. This is a symbolic gesture with no legal or financial impact, focusing solely on historical recognition.
