A resolution honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Mary Edwards Walker.

This resolution proposes to formally recognize the life and achievements of Dr. Mary Edwards Walker. Dr. Walker was a trailblazing physician who served as the first female surgeon in the United States Army during the Civil War. She remains the only woman to have ever received the Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military decoration for valor. The resolution aims to celebrate her contributions to medicine, her advocacy for women's rights and dress reform, and her service as a prisoner of war.

If agreed to, the resolution would express the Senate's commitment to ensuring Dr. Walker's story is preserved and shared with future generations to inspire pursuit of justice and equality. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and would not create new programs or mandate government spending. Instead, it serves as an official statement of honor and national recognition for a significant historical figure.
