This resolution supports the Ohio Commission for the U.S. Semiquincentennial, which was established by the 134th Ohio General Assembly in 2021 to prepare for and commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026. The resolution acknowledges that the commission has produced a report with over 40 recommendations for engaging Ohioans and Ohio communities in the national anniversary celebration. By passing this resolution, the 136th General Assembly demonstrates its commitment to supporting the commission's work and participating fully in the upcoming semiquincentennial (250-year anniversary) celebrations. The term "Semiquincentennial" refers to the 250-year milestone of the nation's founding, which will be marked on July 4, 2026. The resolution also directs the Senate Clerk to send authenticated copies of the resolution to the Governor and Ohio news media, ensuring broad awareness of the state's involvement in this significant national commemorative event.
