Recognizing November 2025 as "National Family Caregivers Month".
HRES 898 is a non-binding resolution recognizing November 2025 as "National Family Caregivers Month" in the U.S. It directly acknowledges the work of approximately 63 million family caregivers who provide unpaid care worth an estimated $600 billion annually. The resolution encourages federal agencies, states, and the private sector to support existing efforts like the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers, and urges policies such as tax credits, paid leave, respite care, and home-based services. It does not create new laws or funding but aims to raise awareness and advocate for caregiver support. This is a symbolic recognition measure, not a legislative change.
