CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 
Whereas news of the end of slavery did not reach frontier 
areas of the United States, and in particular the South-
western States, for more than 2 years after President 
Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 
1863, and months after the conclusion of the Civil War; 
Whereas on June 19, 1865, Union soldiers led by Major Gen-
eral Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas,
•HCON 155 EH 
with news that the Civil War had ended and that the 
enslaved were free; 
Whereas African Americans who had been slaves in the 
Southwest celebrated June 19, commonly known as 
Juneteenth Independence Day, as the anniversary of 
their emancipation; 
Whereas African Americans from the Southwest continue the 
tradition of Juneteenth Independence Day as inspiration 
and encouragement for future generations; 
Whereas for more than 135 years, Juneteenth Independence 
Day celebrations have been held to honor African Amer-
ican freedom while encouraging self-development and re-
spect for all cultures; 
Whereas although Juneteenth Independence Day is beginning 
to be recognized as a national, and even global, event, the 
history behind the celebration should not be forgotten; 
and 
Whereas the faith and strength of character demonstrated by 
former slaves remains an example for all people of the 
United States, regardless of background, religion, or 
race: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That— 
(1) Congress recognizes the historical signifi-
cance of Juneteenth Independence Day to the Na-
tion; 
(2) Congress supports the continued celebration 
of Juneteenth Independence Day to provide an op-
portunity for the people of the United States to

learn more about the past and to better understand 
the experiences that have shaped the Nation; 
(3) the President is urged to issue a proclama-
tion calling on the people of the United States to ob-
serve Juneteenth Independence Day with appro-
priate ceremonies, activities, and programs; and 
(4) it is the sense of Congress that— 
(A) history should be regarded as a means 
for understanding the past and more effectively 
facing the challenges of the future; and 
(B) the celebration of the end of slavery is 
an important and enriching part of the history 
and heritage of the United States.
