Expressing support for the designation of October 23, 2021, as a national day of remembrance of the tragic 1983 terrorist bombing of the United States Marine Corps barracks in Beirut, Lebanon.

House Resolution 442 proposes designating October 23, 2021, as a national day of remembrance to honor the U.S. service members killed or injured in the 1983 bombing of the Marine Corps barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. The resolution seeks to formally recognize the sacrifice of the 241 American personnel lost in the attack and ensures their service remains a part of the national memory. For citizens, this measure serves as a formal expression of congressional support for veterans and gold star families affected by the tragedy, though it does not create a new federal paid holiday or mandate specific public actions.
