Recognizing Day of the Bible at Capitol
This Senate Resolution (SR 10) is a symbolic recognition resolution, not a law. It directs the Senate to formally acknowledge "the Day of the Bible" at the Capitol, citing the historical significance of the 1782 Aitken Bible (the first complete English-language Bible printed in America) and the Bible's broader cultural and moral influence. The resolution encourages reflection on the Bible's role in shaping ethics, justice, and civic life, while affirming religious freedom. It does not create new policies or affect any specific group; it is purely a ceremonial acknowledgment by the Senate.
