What this bill does
H.Res. 1525 is a symbolic resolution that would have the House of Representatives formally recognize September 11, 2026, as a "National Day of Service and Remembrance," marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The resolution honors those killed or injured in the attacks, commends first responders, rescue and recovery workers, volunteers, and military personnel who responded, and calls on Congress and the public to mark the day through service, reflection, memorial observances, and charitable activities.
The resolution does not create new programs, funding, or legal requirements. It affects no one in a binding way; rather, it encourages Members of Congress and the general public to observe the date through volunteerism, remembrance events, and similar voluntary activities, consistent with the "National Day of Service and Remembrance" first established by the 2009 Serve America Act.
The bill was introduced on September 10, 2026, by Rep. Doris Matsui with several cosponsors and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. As a simple resolution, it would not go to the Senate or the President for signature; if passed, it would express the House's position but would not carry the force of law.
