A resolution expressing the support of the Senate for the designation of October 23, 2024, as "Public Radio Music Day" and deep appreciation for the role of public radio music stations in serving listeners, musicians, and hundreds of communities in the United States.

SRES 865 is a symbolic Senate resolution designating October 23, 2024, as "Public Radio Music Day" to honor public radio music stations across the U.S. It expresses the Senate's appreciation for these stations' role in serving listeners, supporting musicians, and enriching communities through locally focused music programming. The resolution does not create new laws or allocate funding but formally recognizes how noncommercial public radio stations provide unique access to diverse music genres, support local artists, and connect communities - particularly in rural areas - through broadcasts, digital platforms, and local events. It directly affects public radio music stations by publicly acknowledging their cultural and community contributions.
