Whereas millions of brave United States servicemembers and

Whereas the recognition of a ‘‘Month of the Military Child’’
will allow the people of the United States to pay tribute
to military children for their commitment, struggles, and
unconditional support of United States troops;
Whereas, when a servicemember joins the military, it is a
family commitment to the United States, and military
children are heroes in their own way; and
Whereas a month-long salute to military children will encour-
age the United States to provide direct support to mili-
tary children and families: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate—
1
(1) supports the designation of April 2023 as
2
the ‘‘Month of the Military Child’’; and
3
(2) urges the people of the United States to ob-
4
serve the Month of the Military Child with appro-
5
priate ceremonies and activities that honor, support,
6
and show appreciation for military children.
