Recognizing the roles and the contributions of Americas Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) and their critical role in providing quality health care for the public and the Nation's Armed Forces for more than 150 years and through multiple public health emergencies and beyond.

HRES 67 is a symbolic House resolution recognizing Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) for their 150+ years of service in providing anesthesia care across the U.S. health system. It highlights CRNAs' critical role in administering over 58 million anesthetics annually, enabling rural healthcare access, supporting military and VA facilities, and responding to public health emergencies. The resolution specifically encourages the public, healthcare providers, and policymakers to fully utilize CRNAs' expertise during National CRNA Week (January 19-25, 2025). As a non-binding acknowledgment, it directly honors the 65,000+ CRNAs and student anesthetists without creating new policy or funding.
