A resolution recognizing the importance of pollinators to ecosystem health and agriculture in the United States by designating June 22 through June 28, 2026, as "National Pollinator Week".
This Senate resolution designates June 22 through June 28, 2026, as National Pollinator Week to raise awareness about the vital role pollinators play in agriculture and ecosystem health. The measure directly affects the general public, agricultural producers, and conservation groups by encouraging them to observe the week with ceremonies and educational activities. It acknowledges that pollinators support over 80 percent of flowering plants and contribute billions of dollars annually to crop production while highlighting the decline of species like the monarch butterfly. The resolution also expresses the Senate's intent to continue working on conserving native pollinator species and improving public understanding of their importance.
