A resolution raising awareness and encouraging the prevention of stalking by designating January 2026 as "National Stalking Awareness Month".

S.Res. 586 is a non-binding Senate resolution that proposes to designate January 2026 as National Stalking Awareness Month. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. Instead, it serves as a statement of congressional intent and awareness.

The resolution aims to raise public awareness about stalking and encourage efforts to prevent it. By designating a specific month for this purpose, the resolution would draw attention to stalking as a serious issue and potentially support educational campaigns, community initiatives, and advocacy efforts focused on stalking prevention and victim support. The resolution was introduced by Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) on January 27, 2026, and was discharged from the Senate Judiciary Committee by unanimous consent on February 9, 2026.
