This is a symbolic Senate resolution (SRES 716) expressing support for designating June 7, 2024, as "National Gun Violence Awareness Day" and June 2024 as "National Gun Violence Awareness Month." It does not create new laws or policies but encourages the public to wear orange, promote gun safety awareness, and hold community discussions about reducing gun violence during these designated times. The resolution cites statistics on gun deaths and references Hadiya Pendleton's birthday as the basis for the awareness day. It directly affects the public by calling for collective awareness efforts, not specific groups or government actions.
