A resolution designating March 24th, 2023, as "National Women of Color in Tech Day".
SRES 124 is a non-binding Senate resolution designating March 24, 2023, as "National Women of Color in Tech Day." It recognizes the contributions of women of color in technology and highlights their underrepresentation in STEM fields through a preamble citing historical figures and statistics. The resolution urges the public to observe the day, calls for increased diversity in tech through recruitment and retention efforts, and recommends strengthening partnerships with minority-serving educational institutions. It does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic acknowledgment of systemic barriers and a call for greater inclusion in the technology sector.
