Supporting the goals and ideals of Black History Month and honoring the outstanding contributions of African-American Congressional Medal of Honor recipients.

House Resolution 1026 is a commemorative measure that officially recognizes the significance of Black History Month and honors the bravery of African American service members who have received the Medal of Honor. The resolution highlights the historical contributions of African Americans to the United States and specifically pays tribute to those who demonstrated exceptional valor in the Armed Forces. As a resolution, its primary impact is to formally express the sentiment of the House of Representatives rather than to create new laws or authorize government spending.
