Commemorating the 50th anniversary of hip hop and designating August 11, 2023, as "Hip Hop Celebration Day", designating August 2023 as "Hip Hop Recognition Month", and designating November 2023 as "Hip Hop History Month".

House Resolution 602 officially recognizes the 50th anniversary of hip hop by designating August 11, 2023, as “Hip Hop Celebration Day,” August 2023 as “Hip Hop Recognition Month,” and November 2023 as “Hip Hop History Month.” The resolution honors the genre’s origins in the Bronx and its subsequent global influence on art, economic development, and social justice. While the bill does not create new laws or provide funding, it serves as a formal congressional acknowledgment of hip hop’s cultural impact and encourages citizens to celebrate its history through local events and educational programs.
