A resolution designating February 16, 2026, as "National Elizabeth Peratrovich Day".

This is a non-binding resolution that does not have the force of law. The resolution proposes to officially designate February 16, 2026, as National Elizabeth Peratrovich Day. Elizabeth Peratrovich was a significant figure in Alaska Native civil rights history, and this designation would recognize her contributions and legacy on a national level.

Since this is a Senate resolution rather than binding legislation, it serves a ceremonial and commemorative purpose. The resolution has already passed the Senate by unanimous consent on February 26, 2026. While it does not create any new laws or direct government action, it represents congressional recognition of an important historical figure and provides an opportunity for public awareness and reflection on civil rights achievements.
