Supporting the goals and ideals of Red Ribbon Week during the period of October 23 through October 31, 2025.

HRES 834 is a non-binding House resolution supporting Red Ribbon Week (October 23-31, 2025), which raises awareness about drug prevention. It encourages Americans to wear red ribbons, light buildings, and participate in community activities to promote drug-free lifestyles. The resolution references the Red Ribbon Campaign’s history, including honoring DEA agent Enrique Camarena, and cites U.S. drug overdose statistics (over 80,000 deaths in 2024) to emphasize the need for prevention efforts. It does not create new laws or programs but symbolically urges public participation in existing awareness initiatives like "Lock Your Meds" and "Every Day is Take Back Day."
