This resolution supports the designation of July 10, 2025, as Journeyman Lineworkers Recognition Day, acknowledging the critical role that journeyman lineworkers play in maintaining the United States' electrical grid. The resolution highlights the essential services provided by these workers, who maintain electricity infrastructure 24/7 and perform heroic services during national and regional disasters like hurricanes, wildfires, and storms. It specifically commemorates the 129th anniversary of Henry Miller, the first president of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, who was killed while trying to restore electricity in Washington, DC. The Senate resolves to honor the contributions and sacrifices of journeyman lineworkers who often work in dangerous conditions, putting their lives at risk to ensure safe and reliable power delivery across the United States and its territories. The resolution encourages the American people to observe this day with appropriate reflection, recognizing the hundreds of thousands of men and women who have served their communities through skilled and essential electrical work.
