HRES 626 United States House · 119th Congress

Commemorating the continuation of the semicentennial of hip hop and designating August 11, 2025, as "Hip Hop Celebration Day", designating August 2025 as "Hip Hop Recognition Month", and designating November 2025 as "Hip Hop History Month".

This resolution designates August 11, 2025, as "Hip Hop Celebration Day," August 2025 as "Hip Hop Recognition Month," and November 2025 as "Hip Hop History Month." It commemorates hip hop's origins, referencing Clive Campbell's 1973 Bronx event that marked the genre's birth. The resolution encourages federal, state, local governments, and communities to observe these designations through appropriate activities. It does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes hip hop's cultural and historical significance.
