Bill > SRes467

This resolution designates October 30, 2025, as a national day of remembrance for workers involved in the United States nuclear weapons program, acknowledging the significant contributions and sacrifices made by hundreds of thousands of men and women since World War II. The resolution recognizes various workers including uranium miners, millers, haulers, plutonium processors, and participants in atmospheric nuclear weapons tests, who often developed serious or fatal illnesses while serving the country's defense needs. Drawing from a series of previous Senate resolutions spanning from 2009 to 2024 that have consistently honored these workers, the resolution formally establishes the commemorative day and encourages Americans to support and participate in ceremonies, programs, and activities that honor the past and present workers of the nuclear weapons program. By creating this day of remembrance, the resolution seeks to publicly acknowledge the patriotic service and personal sacrifices of these individuals who played a critical role in national defense during a complex period of American history.
