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

SRES 479 is a Senate resolution supporting Red Ribbon Week (October 23-31, 2025), a national observance focused on drug prevention. It encourages all Americans to wear red ribbons, light buildings, and participate in drug-free community activities during this week. The resolution does not create new laws or policies but formally recognizes the campaign’s goals of reducing drug use and overdose deaths. It directly affects the general public by promoting symbolic participation in a long-standing drug prevention effort. The resolution cites ongoing drug overdose crises, including fentanyl-related deaths, as context for its support.
