Expressing support for replacing the term "Thank you for your service" with "Thank you for our freedom".

HRES 26 is a symbolic House resolution expressing support for replacing the phrase "Thank you for your service" with "Thank you for our freedom" when acknowledging military members and veterans. It does not change any laws or require government action, but urges the public, Congress, and the President to adopt the new phrase as a way to honor those who protect American freedom. The resolution cites a historical anecdote about a Navy pilot to argue that the revised phrase better reflects the military's role in preserving freedom. It directly affects public messaging and cultural recognition of service members, not legal rights or benefits. The resolution has no binding effect on federal policy or funding.
