SRES 152 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution designating April 2023 as "National Native Plant Month".

This resolution designates April 2023 as "National Native Plant Month" to recognize the environmental and cultural value of native plants across the United States. It highlights that native plants - indigenous to specific regions - support biodiversity by providing food and habitat for wildlife, prevent erosion, and help restore ecosystems. The resolution does not create new laws or affect specific groups; it is a symbolic recognition by the Senate of native plants' role in environmental resilience. It follows a pattern of ceremonial resolutions honoring ecological themes without implementing policy changes.
