A resolution commending Delta State University in Cleveland, Mississippi, for 100 years of service to the State of Mississippi and the United States.
Summary
S.Res. 489 is a non-binding Senate resolution that honors Delta State University in Cleveland, Mississippi, for its century of service to the state and nation. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. Instead, it serves as an official expression of appreciation and recognition from the Senate for the university's contributions and achievements over its 100-year history.
The resolution was introduced by Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) and has advanced through the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, which discharged it by unanimous consent in November 2025. While this procedural action indicates support, the resolution remains symbolic in nature, functioning as a formal commendation rather than legislation that would create new policies or programs affecting citizens.
