A resolution expressing support for the designation of June 6, 2025, as "National Gun Violence Awareness Day" and June 2025 as "National Gun Violence Awareness Month".
SRES 260 is a symbolic Senate resolution expressing support for designating June 6, 2025, as "National Gun Violence Awareness Day" and June 2025 as "National Gun Violence Awareness Month." It calls on U.S. citizens to wear orange on June 6, 2025, promote gun safety awareness, and focus on community safety efforts during summer months when gun violence typically rises. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but aims to raise public awareness about gun violence, referencing statistics on annual gun-related deaths and honoring victims like Hadiya Pendleton. It is a non-binding expression of support, not a legislative action.
