Bill > SCR112

This concurrent resolution requests the City and County of Honolulu to light up City Hall with purple lights on August 7, 2025, in recognition of National Purple Heart Day. The resolution provides context by highlighting the significance of the Purple Heart, a prestigious military decoration awarded to service members wounded or killed in military service. The whereas clauses emphasize the medal's importance, noting that it recognizes acts of extraordinary fidelity and service that form the foundation of modern freedoms in the United States. By requesting City Hall be illuminated in purple, the resolution aims to honor and draw public attention to the sacrifices made by military service members who have been injured or killed while serving their country. The resolution also requires that a certified copy be transmitted to the Mayor of Honolulu, formally communicating the request.
