Honoring women in the United States for their service in World War II and recognizing the role of Representative Edith Nourse Rogers in establishing the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps and the Women's Army Corps.

House Resolution 449 is a commemorative measure that formally honors the millions of American women who served in military capacities during World War II. The resolution specifically recognizes the legislative leadership of Representative Edith Nourse Rogers, who authored the bills that created the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC) and the Women’s Army Corps (WAC). While this resolution does not create new laws or authorize federal spending, it serves as an official congressional tribute to the historical contributions of women in the armed forces and their role in the Allied victory.
