HRES 1361 is a non-binding resolution designating July 20, 2024, as "National Heroes Day" to honor everyday people who act courageously during crises, such as saving lives in mass shootings. It references events like the 2012 Aurora theater shooting and other recent tragedies but focuses on recognizing all community members who demonstrate selfless bravery. The resolution encourages Americans to observe the day through community service, reflection, and displaying the U.S. flag, without creating new laws or obligations.
