This resolution designates April 2026 as "Care Worker Recognition Month" to honor and acknowledge the work of people who provide care services in the United States, including home health aides, nursing assistants, and other caregiving professionals. The measure is largely symbolic and doesn't create new laws or funding, but expresses Congress's support for recognizing the contributions these workers make to American families and communities. Care workers—who often work in hospitals, nursing homes, and private homes—would be the primary focus of this recognition effort.
