A resolution expressing support for the designation of May 2026 as "National Beef Month" to recognize the important role cattle play in the United States, and to consumers.

This Senate resolution expresses support for designating May 2026 as "National Beef Month" to highlight the economic and nutritional significance of cattle in the United States. The bill does not create any new laws or regulations; instead, it serves as a symbolic gesture acknowledging the industry's role in the nation's agricultural economy and the health benefits of beef consumption.
