Expressing support for the designation of October 28 as "Oxi Day" to commemorate the anniversary of Greek Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas answer of "Oxi!" or "No!" to surrender to the Axis forces, inflicting a fatal wound that helped save democracy for the world.

HRES 840 is a symbolic House resolution designating October 28 as "Oxi Day" to honor Greece's refusal to surrender to Axis forces during World War II. It commemorates Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas' 1940 "Oxi!" (No!) response to Italy's ultimatum, which delayed Nazi Germany's invasion of Russia and is cited as historically significant for the Allied war effort. The resolution does not create new laws but encourages U.S. citizens to observe the day through ceremonies and activities. It directly addresses the U.S. House of Representatives and aims to recognize shared democratic values between the U.S. and Greece, referencing historical events without legal consequences.
