Bill > HRes1191

This resolution commemorates the 10th anniversary of the Columbine Day of Service, an event established to honor the victims, survivors, and families affected by the tragic shooting at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999, which resulted in the deaths of 13 individuals and injuries to 24 others. The resolution recognizes the profound trauma experienced by the Columbine community and emphasizes the importance of remembering those lost and forever changed by the violence. It highlights the Columbine Day of Service as a celebration of community resilience, born from the efforts of students, staff, alumni, first responders, and community members who responded with love and solidarity, transforming the day into a global movement promoting kindness and community building. The resolution also acknowledges Colorado's annual "Day of Recommitment" on April 20, which fosters community service and redefines the Columbine legacy as one of hope and rebirth, and it urges citizens to participate in acts of service and remember the victims.
